Don't know where in Arizona you are from, but I have been to Tuscon & Sedona with my husband on business. He use to go to Tuscon every year for Environment Canada. He is retired now. I LOVED it their and want to go back. So much I didn't get to see. Want to go back to the Grand Canyon.

Thanks for telling me about the private settings. Is it okay now? I tried some different settings.

Oh by the way Cat. I guess you know your page is set to "private". This means no one can see any of your cake photos. Sure would like to see them.
