Life Rocks When Your Living Room Rolls

Full Moon

Sunday, July 9, 2017 - Amado, AZ

Tonight is the Buck Moon. According to the Farmer's Almanac it is called the Buck Moon because at this time, a buck’s antlers are in full growth mode. This full Moon was also known as the Thunder Moon, because thunderstorms are so frequent during this month.

We did not make margaritas tonight, so the adult beverage for tonight was beer. :)

It was another wonderful day!

Museum of Miniatures

Saturday, July 8, 2017 - Amado, AZ

The high today was supposed to 118, so we decided see if there were any other museum that we would like to see. I looked on the phone and we came up with The Mini Time Machine, museum of miniatures.

These miniatures were in the first room. I was just amazed at the detail.

This is a 14 room doll house.

This is made of a German toy similar to Lego.

These houses were in the imaginary area.

This was next to the 3 bears house and I thought it was such a cute story I just had to take a picture of it.

The first picture is the second story of the 4 story shop.

This house was made out of walnut cigar boxes.

The next several pictures are more rooms and houses.

It is so hard to believe the amount of work that must have gone in each of them. When we got out to the car the thermometer showed 114.

Doing something inside was a good idea.

Tomorrow night is the full moon, but I took at couple of picture of the moon tonight.

It was another wonderful day!

Old Tucson

Tuesday, July 4, 2017 - Amado, AZ

Happy Independence Day!

During the summer months Old Tucson is only open on the weekends and on the 4th of July, so we decided we would go there today. The temperature was not as hot today, but it was still 100+. Old Tucson is in the Tucson Mountain Park.

It was about an hour drive, but we made it. :)

We were not sure what to expect, but it was a really neat. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a cowboy.

We saw the sign "Ronald Reagan 40th President of the United States acted here in the 1950 film "The Last Outpost"".

This is looking down the road.

We went joined the group for a tour around town. This is our tour guide out front the hotel. She was a great guide and let us know about numerous films that were shot here.
