Lemon Harvest

The bucket in the image to the left measures about a foot in diameter and is fifteen inches deep. Click on the image to enlarge.

Most of the lemons are quite large. We’re planning on giving some to the neighbors and keeping a few in our fruit bowl for our Friday fish meal.

Rock Garden

I took a photo of some of the rocks and a beavertail cactus in our rock garden. It is a nice artsy picture when rendered in black and white. Click on the image to enlarge.

Moonrise Over Palo Verde

Late this afternoon, I was out back and saw the moon rising over the palo verde just east of the driveway. I thought it was a very pretty sight on a very cool day here in Wickenburg. Click on the image to enlarge.

Sunday Morning Going Down

I snapped this today while walking the dogs on the road in front of the new house. The temperature was a brisk 42° so the dogs and I finished our business and went back inside the cozy house seen in the photo. Click on the image to enlarge.
