Isn't Arizona Supposed to be Hot?

You wouldn't know it from the temps we've been having lately. Not that I'm complaining. I still prefer "Arizona Cold" over the rain and ice that we had been experiencing in Seward.

Although, from the sound of things, immediately after our departure Seward has been getting pounded with snowstorm after snowstorm. Bummer it wasn't like that last winter. Figures...

Anyway, as many of you already know, we've arrived in our new home in Arizona. We're living in a big house with a fenced in backyard for the dogs and we love it. We've been seeing lots of cool new birds, and both Sonja and I are compiling growing lists of new species. In fact, just today we both saw our first Bridled Titmouse! We also got to see our first javelina a couple days ago. Well, at least the butt of a javelina as it ran into the bushes on the side of the road one evening as we drove home.

I also started work last week at "The Castle" (pictured below). It's pretty darn cool. I've already gotten to go inside of it, too.
Now that we finally have our internet up and running I'll be posting fairly regularly once again. And when I figure out how to display the pictures from our drive down the AlCan, I'll post those, too.
