Tucson Adventures
June 25th, 2007Last week I headed off for Tucson, AZ for a four-day Family Economics Financial Education (http://www.fefe.arizona.edu/index.php) conference. I arrived on Sunday and spent the afternoon in a rental car seeing some of the sights of the city and Mount Lemon, which is just north and east of Tucson. Once the conference actually started on Monday, there really was not much time for sightseeing, although we did slip off to the mall and drove past the University campus. We stayed at the Westward Look Resort (http://www.westwardlook.com) which was a wonderful, historic place that housed all of our meetings and offered many things to do in our free time. The speakers and the program were outstanding and I learned many new things that I hope to incorporate into my classes this fall. It was the wee hours of Friday morning when I arrived back home – glad that I had gone, but equally as happy to be home!
