I needed a break from the cold and snow of the Midwest and I think I found where the sun has been hiding: The desert in Arizona! I visited the Saguaro National Park this morning. The park is divided into two and this is the west portion that I’ve never been to. Simply beautiful!

For the past two weeks I have taken you along with me on the Garfield Trail in Grant County, Indiana. Each day, a new statue! The 14th and final stop is Scream for Ice Cream Garfield in Upland, in front of Ivanhoe’s Drive-In. Home of 100 shakes and 100 sundaes! How many have you tried?
