Yes, the top photo does look like a howitzer is placed to defend the house but scroll down for a little broader perspective. I attended a ceremony at Ft Huachuca and took this photo on the parade grounds. "Colonel Row" is the nickname for the street of officers' houses that overlook the grounds. The howitzer is placed near the flagpole.

A cannon for home defense?

Art puzzle ~ word games
I have been able to spell out two words from this alphabet soup sculpture on the grounds of Steven Derks's Gallery 801: Arts Club. But I still had some letters left over.... don't know if there is a "right answer" to solve this letter puzzle ~ maybe that's the whole point - just play with letters. For more information about this very interesting gallery on Main, click here.

The bare minimum ~
For maybe a decade Tucson's El Con Mall has been renovating, remodeling, & redesigning the floor plan. On the north side of the mall there was once a plan for a food court that would open onto a large patio with a dramatic Spanish archway. Looks like the archway was dismantled and more changes are in the works.

Tucson's wacky weather ~
Saturday was just gorgeous ~ in the 80's and beautiful. And the garden centers were jammed with people buying flowers, plants, and shrubs. Then Sunday arrived with low low temperatures and an all-day rain. Some northern parts of the county got SNOW! It's crazy weather and in the last 48 hours we have hit every level on this colorful mosaic thermometer ~ cold, just right, and hot!

Tucson's newest steakhouse ~
Here is the sleek bar area outside of the entrance to the P.Y. Steakhouse (not pronounced like "pie"; the name is the initials P Y). This is part of the new hotel and resort at Casino del Sol. They have some unusual drink offerings here ~ check it out!

Time is how you define it ~
You be the judge ~ is this sky sunrise or sunset? At the incredible Casino del Sol Hotel & Resort time is whatever you want it to be. Here in one of the slot machine areas the ceiling is a beautiful blue sky painted with clouds. And the time of day? That's for you to decide ~
