The Struggle - The Sunday 7 - Issue #59

Feb 05, 2023 2:01 pm

Happy Sunday!


Today is Tu BiShvat, otherwise known as the Jewish New Year for trees.


Apparently, during the Middle Ages, Jewish communities in Palestine began to celebrate the holiday by planting trees and eating fruit.


If you can't plant a tree today, maybe eat some fruit while you enjoy today's Sunday 7.


Blessings!

3) 🥾 This Week's Hike


This week in lieu of a hike, Chrissy and I visited Old Tucson.


Originally built to make the movie Arizona back in 1939, it evolved over the years to become the filming location for many major western movies and TV shows.


Ever heard of Little House on the Prairie? How about Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, El Dorado, The Three Amigos or Tombstone?


Yep, all filmed there on location at "Old Tucson". The list of movies and shows filmed there is truly impressive.


Chrissy and I enjoyed a stunt show, a train ride, a wagon ride, and a can-can show while there. The scenery surrounding that area is stunning.


Here are a few photos on our website from our time there.
