In Road Trip!

I am outside Cottonwood, Arizona now, camped overlooking a gorgeous valley, surrounded by mountains and foliage of all kinds (as long as it has thorns or needles!)

Yes, this is a prickly paradise

But, oh — is it worth the occasional scratch!

Look what greeted me when I woke up this morning!

So of course, I did laundry.

    The hot air balloons are there most mornings. I hope you also have a nice view of the red rock escarpment to the north.

      I do, Al! Unfortunately, my camera does not do them justice.
