These flowers are starting to bloom in the courtyard. This is the delicate Cleveland Sage flower that has a subtle but pungent fragrance that aerates the courtyard from spring to late summer. Click on the image to enlarge.

Early Spring Cactus Flower Slideshow
We have been having a wonderful array of spring cactus flowers here in town. I took many of the images in the slideshow here in our yard, although some in other yards here in town. The cactus types are hedgehog, Argentine Giant, prickly pear, beavertail and cholla. Click on the slideshow above to advance through the ten-image array.
Beavertail Cactus Flowers
We had no idea that when Bob transplanted several beavertail cacti from the hill behind the house to several places along the RV drive that they would do so well. Now that spring is here, they are rewarding the effort with many beautiful pink flowers. Click on the image to enlarge.
Cholla Cactus Flower
A few days ago, I showed some flower buds on a cholla cactus. At that time, I mentioned that we would soon be getting some cholla flowers. Well, today marks the first day where the cholla are blooming. Click on the image to enlarge.
Sunset, Moonset and Saguaro
We took the dogs out this evening and were greeted with this lovely sunset with pink clouds, our big saguaro cactus and the setting crescent moon. We love this place! Click on the image to enlarge.
Bay Bay Goes For A Swim
The Mama and the Daddy took Cabela and me to the dog park today. When we get there, the Mama puts water in the tub because she knows I like to get in and swim sometimes. The Daddy took this movie of me swimming today. It is fun and I like it. I like the dog park.
