This post is coming out of a hotel room in Tucson, AZ, where I’ll be staying for the rest of the week. I flew into Phoenix on Saturday to join Kori during her last week of a 4-week rotation in Tucson.

After flying in on Saturday, we went to a friend’s house in Scottsdale. He was gracious enough to show us around town and offer us place to stay for the night. Actually, it was way more than that; he had dinner cooking for us when we arrived, we had a nice air-mattress to sleep on, he made us breakfast in the morning, and we lounged around his pool for most of the day on Sunday.

After we were finally able to pull ourselves away from our friend’s resort-like home, we made the hour-and-a-half drive to Tucson. I spent the rest of the night relaxing, watching a little TV, and doing some reading (The Fall of Hyperion, by Dan Simmons – an excellent book so far, and the first book, Hyperion, was also great). Today was spent working, topped off by a nice sushi dinner with Kori.

I’ll have some photos once I get back to my home computer, which has my camera’s software and cable. While I’m out here I hope to get a few more posts up, maybe work on some details of this site, get some more reading done, do a little drawing, and spend the rest of my free time relaxing.

I think I’ll get started on that last one.
