At David's and Barbara's

   Hilda and I went to David and Barbara's house in Saddlebrook last evening. It's about 30 miles from our house, toward Oracle, in Oro Valley. It was a small birthday celebration for David's 80th B-day. We visited, ate, drank beer (David and I) talked politics, family, food Judaism (they are both Jewish) and a lot about illegal aliens. Both David and Barbara are die-hard liberal Democrats and I am a very conservative Independent. Lots of disagreement there on almost every subject.

   Barbara (Zagoria) is a really great artist and has been all of her life. I took some photographs of 'some' of her work that hangs on the walls of their house. They are both native New Yorkers, but she has lived years in Mexico and New Guinea, and has visited South America, Central America, Russia and Greece among other places. David does some outstanding stained glass work, much of which is on display in their home.

This is one of her works of a Mexican lady 

and her child.

This is some of David's stained glass 
hung in the east windows of the dining area.
