… we had a little walk. The temperatures were crisp, for AZ, and the sky was as blue as blue can be. T’was a perfect day for walking\u00a0in Old Town Scottsdale.<\/p>\n
I had fun with these pics, using one of my Christmas presents (Topaz Labs Lens Effects) for a few of them. One of the themes of the walk appears to have been children playing in fountain water at various points along the way. \ud83d\ude42 Toward the end of the walk after they had all been getting wet up to their elbows, I was trying to address the wet, soggy sleeves on my little man, turned away for a moment, and when I looked back, Efrain was sucking the water out of his sleeve. I’m still recovering from the heebee-jeebees that gave me… I guess it’s all good for building a stronger immune system? Here’s hoping… We finished off with a walk down the road to the famous Sugar Bowl for a treat – that place is no end of busy during the holiday season (and possibly it’s like that every day, I don’t find myself over there\u00a0often enough to know); we had a good long wait outside on the sidewalk before a group our size could be seated. But it was definitely memorably tasty once we made it inside.<\/p>\n
Anyway, here are scenes from our walk – pop this out to full screen for the best viewing. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
