Starr Pass Marriott in Tucson


We all drove from Sierra Verde to the northwest side of Tucson, to Marriott's Starr Pass Resort and Spa. Felicia used her Marriott points for two free nights at the lovely resort.


Felicia and India checked in and wasted no time hitting the pool and hot tub. Then India had a massage, while Felicia relaxed on the terrace with a tangueray and tonic and wonderful guacamole. The flowers in the desert were delightful and a sight for sore eyes for someone living in the dark and cloudy north.


The next day was a bit rainy and lovely. Felicia took pictures of the dramatic clouds over the mountains. The sun peaked through, creating a beautiful sun and shadows.


She wondered what we were all doing in the kennel in Michigan! On the internet, ordering Fendi, no doubt!


It was lovely to sit in the hotel room with the slider open, listening to the fountain and viewing the tall Saguaro cacti climbing the mountainside behind the hotel. Felicia found the desert lovely and peaceful, and couldn't wait to bring me along next time, to the Phoenician in Phoenix, for example, where they allow dogs!
