Catalina State Park just west of Tuscon

We are staying at Catalina S.P. for five nights. We are back in the desert and the weather is HOT. Eighty five in the afternoon but it does cool down at night. We went down to thirty seven last night, but it warms up as soon as the sun comes up.
We did a long hike up into the Santa Catalina mountains behind the park today and made it up to Romero Ponds about two and a half miles into the mountains. The water was nice and cool and we washed our faces and cooled our feet on the rocks. What a joy!
Tomorrow we will be going into old town Tucson where they have the old movie sets from the old Hollywood westerns.
