Super Moon Refection
I’m alone in Cholla after Frankie took cousins Rex & Phyllis back to Phoenix. Phyllis’s love for her youngest sister Linda fighting cancer compelled them to return to Missouri to give her support through her challenges. Our thoughts and prayers are with them. Family is the pillars on our porch. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes they lean on you, and sometimes it’s important to just hug each other.
The Super Moon in Cholla was a good time to reflect on family and friends and how much they mean to us.
The photos that follow are from their visit and I send them in hopes they can share with family as they come together to support Linda.

Along with the Super Moon comes a Super low tide. Sunday’s beach, the lowest low tide we’ve ever seen.
Colorful sea bottom foliage is exposed with the extreme low tide.

After our week in Cholla we returned to Phoenix and Rex traveled to a business meeting. On his return we picked him up at the airport and headed for a Marti Gras party.

There’s been lots of Blah Blah about Lisa’s Sherriff encounter story on Facebook and how winded and detailed it was. Only here do you get a Birdseye view of her telling the story. Sorry Lisa, You suggested this photo. I think it’s fun! Note the normal beautiful Lisa in the photo with me above.
