ceebeegee: (Southwest cactus)

So I spent last week in beautiful Arizona. I took MANY pictures with my dad but he hasn't sent them to me yet, so I can only display what I took with my lil' camera phone.



This is one of my favorite things about Arizona--the beautiful Saguaro cactus. You can't see them very well in this picture but there are everywhere along the highway. They grow all over southern Arizona and are protected--you cannot cut them down without express permission. They seem so exotic, as though you've stepped onto a movie set or into something from your dreams--a classic Western icon.





More warm-weather fauna, gorgeous palm trees blowing in the sun. They make me so happy--they take me back to Florida, they remind me that a warmer world is out there. Arizona is a desert paradise, ascetic and surprising, long, black-ribboned highways etching into the horizon, narrow mountain passes with canyons yawning below, coyotes howling in the night.
