We had a busy weekend!

On 3/14 I took Nathan to the Desert Museum again.  Once again, he did not want to leave!

On 3/15 we went up to Phoenix and attended the Sox vs Cubs spring training game.  Unfortunately, the Sox clobbered the Cubs.  After the game we went to Portillos for dinner.

The next day, 3/16, we went to the Phoenix Zoo.  After the zoo, Paul and Nathan dropped me off at the Desert Botanical Gardens.  That place often disappoints me.  Only a couple of cacti were blooming and there was not much else to see.  The butterfly exhibit was cool, but not nearly as good as the one at the Tucson Botanical Gardens.  It is expensive to go to the Desert Botanical Gardens, too.  A couple of hours later my boys picked me up and we headed back to the hotel.  We saw McCormick-Stillman Railroad Park so we decided to stop.  We got there just in time for the last train ride.  We will have to go back some time so Nathan can see the model railroads.  That night we ate at Old Town Tortilla Factory.

St Patty's Day we went to another spring training game.  We saw the Angels vs the Padres.  Angels ended up winning.  On the way back to Tucson we stopped at Olive Garden for dinner.  A nice Italian meal to celebrate the Irish holiday!
