Walkabout in the Southwest



Hi everyone:

I'm finishing up my final exams this week, and getting ready to take off on my annual walkabout in the Southwest. I'll be back with pictures of Death Valley, Bodie, the new lookout on the Grand Canyon, Hopi's third Mesa, the floor of Canyon d' Chelly, and Santa Fe. If you send any notes to me about club dates after this Friday, you can expect the information to be posted mid-June. Hope you are all looking forward to exciting summer plans. See you on June 20 at Duboce Park Cafe for speaker Katia Noyes.
