Hello from sunny Arizona, everyone! My little net book isn't letting me edit photos this evening, so here are a few straight out of the camera. These three were taken at the beautiful Boyce Thompson Arboretum.
My first few days in this gorgeous state may have been cloudy and rainy, but all of that has changed. Sunny Arizona has a rugged beauty and I am having a wonderful time experiencing it!
Beautiful photos. Can't wait to hear all about your trip!

Hello Karen
ReplyDeleteGlad you're getting hot and sunny weather; try to bring some home with you! An arboretum in Arizona, how different and interesting, and look at that giant cactus!
Enjoy your stay.

Lovely! I haven't been to Arizona - except the airport in Phenix - a whole new kind of beauty with those cactus!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen! I'm glad the weather is finally cooperating and you are enjoying your time in Arizona. Everything is so different from here. Someday I would like to visit there.
ReplyDeleteI'm not joining up this week. I've been busy getting my mom settled in her apartment. I finally got to take her out of the nursing home!
Beautiful pictures... Looks much warmer then the cold, snowy U.P. I need some warmth. Not sure that I have any pictures to share for this week.
ReplyDeleteStraight out of the camera, and very good!
ReplyDeleteI love Arizona.
Thanks for an excellent fun meme.
I would really like to visit Arizona for a shot of sunshine and to see some of the cacti. I hope you're having a grand time!
ReplyDeleteHi,Karen
ReplyDeleteThose photos are gorgeous! I am glad to know that you are enjoying Arizona. The last photo is capturing my eyes. It looks hard to click the shutter from the under the cactus. Beautiful shot!!!

Good Morning Karen, What beautiful photos you have taken, it is so lovely to see blue skies again. I have a confession to make, I did not create a post about sunshine, as quite frankly we have not had any.....but, when I was making some marmalade, the sun burst through the clouds and the sun's rays streamed through my window, whilst taking the photo...I immediately knew which party I wanted to join to share my "ray of sunshine". I hope that is alright.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your holiday in Arizona, it looks like an interesting place.
Best Wishes

Wow I wish I was there! I'll trade my snow for cactus any day!
ReplyDeleteArizona certainly looks a lot warmer, dryer and brighter than England at the moment!! I have shared my last look at the sun on my way back from work on Friday. Take care. Chel

ReplyDeleteHallo Karen!I hope you have a great time!Beautiful photos!Enjoy your visit!

I love the desert sunshine in winter - love love love it. It would be nice break from the rain in the Pacific Northwest.
ReplyDeleteI would sure love to travel to AZ this year! It really does have a beauty all it's own! Happy Sunday!

Hello Karen -- We just got back from sunny San Diego and experienced the same kind of weather you write about here. It got warmer every day and I hated to leave to come back to the grey cold. But spring will come! Enjoy the sunshine! Soak it up!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures with a nice blue sky you viser.Ønsker you a good day / good new week :) Hanne Bente
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't mind being in Arizona right now. This morning we woke up to fog - so unusual for Utah!
ReplyDeleteinteresting arboretum. With great plants. Looks gret as SOOC. Sometimes that is better. :)
ReplyDeleteYour AZ pics are lovely! Enjoy the sunshine and warm weather!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful and so different from where we live. The second photo is beautiful, I would love to walk down that path !
