Beautiful photos Angie. I especially like your cover photo too of the sunset. Glad you are enjoying new places and trying new things. Life is an adventure if you take advantage of all the things that you can do. Blessings from NC, Jan
Thanks, Jan. Yes, we enjoy trying new things, going new places.
You're right - that's a lot of unexpected color for desert flora. Very nice!
