New Places

I am now a resident of Arizona! I moved down to Winslow - you know, "Standin' on the Corner..." - two and a half weeks ago. It took me a few days to get over the homesickness, but now I honestly love it here! I've been making friends: Joseph, Mary Catherine, Ashley, Janae (just to name a few). Basically I'm always with the Ricks family down here. :) My friends have been showing me all the amazing things to do around the area. Did you know there is a giant Jack Rabbit that you can ride? Yeah, they make fun of it in the movie Cars. Isn't it cute? I love animals. ^^

I've also been cliff jumping at Clear Creek, driven an amazing Jaguar convertible, ran a 10k, eaten at the Rootbeer Stand, and visited the Little Painted Desert. (See Below)



Last weekend I also visited Tucson for the first time! It was pretty incredible. Joseph showed me around the city. (Much bigger than Winslow BTW!) First we went to the zoo! Did I mention I love animals??? Haha.





















This picture doesn't give the bird's mohawk justice...



The otters were definitely one of my favorites!

And at night the city looks incredible.


These are all of my adventures for the moment, but I'm sure there will be more to come!
