Yesterday Barbara and I traveled 120 miles, round trip, to visit the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area just northwest of Las Vegas.

When Barbara was researching aquariums in the Phoenix area she discovered that at the Odysea Aquarium you can dive and interact with stingrays, a Tiger shark, a Leopard shark, a Moray eel and other sea life.

Recently, Barbara had to fly back to Texas to attend the funeral of a dear family member. While there Barbara, her son and daughter went to an aquarium to kill time before the flight home.
