We bought these beautiful and fragrant flowers today at the flower concession in the local supermarket. Looks and smells nice. Click on the image to enlarge.

Desert Tikis
One of our townsfolk carved these south-Pacific tikis out of palm tree trunks. He has a roadside concession just down US 60 southeast of town. Click on the image to enlarge.
Desert Train
Verna got this photo of a southbound freight train as we were returning from a shopping trip to the Phoenix Metro Area. The engineers and crew are lucky to be treated to spectacular desert views as they progress along their track. Click on the image to enlarge.
Rock and Cactus Garden
Rendered in sepia, with an antique kerosene can thrown in for good measure. Click on the image to enlarge.
Walking The Dogs
We had a rather large dinner this afternoon. As has become tradition, we walk the dinner off by taking the dogs for a walk. Verna took this picture of me carrying Cabela, since the little dog was pulling on the leash so hard she almost knocked me down. I don’t mind carrying her and neither does she until she sees something she wants to take a close look (or sniff). Click on the image to enlarge.
Second Spring
Arizona experiences a “second spring” in October. The weather is warm and the flowers bloom. Of course, my Bishop’s Cap flowers have been blooming since early spring, all summer long and now again in second spring. Click on the image to enlarge.
