There was food cooking in he solar oven and drinks to be had

Sound tough? I'll bet polar bears would do it if it meant an
end to Global Warming.

Earth Day Peace Flag


Yesterday was our Earth Day Festival. There was food,music and of different organizations there teaching people on things they can do to help stop global warming. It was not as large as I thought it would be but all in all it was a good day. You can see the full flag below. Happy Monday!

This guy was having a good time trying to get people to cheer as this big flag came down the street. Happy Monday everyone!

Phoenix Pride

Yesterday was the big Phoenix Gay Pride Parade. Its not as big as other large cities but it was fun. The weather was perfect but the sun ws still pretty hot and I have got the burnt face to prove it. :-) Over the next week I will be posting photos from the parade.

Spring colors


Happy Friday everyone. Spring color is everywhere, yes even in the desert Southwest. We even had April showers yesterday and a pretty chilly evening.

Yucca in bloom


I think outside of most jungle type plants I think the desert has got to have some of the strangest looking blossoms on their catci. As you can see these also have a yellow bloom to them like the Palo Verde trees.

Star Wars mail


R2D2 will take your mail. There are four of these mailboxes through out Phoenix. These were set up to promote new Star Wars stamps that will be issued this year.

Deep breath, now sneeze


Our Palo Verde trees are in bloom and allergies are on the rise. You know its allergy season here when you see their little yellow blossoms on the trees and all over the ground. They are beautiful though.

A little are to start you week


This horse sculpture is in the court yard of an art gallery in Old Town Scottsdale.

Its Easter!


Some people will spend the day hunting eggs, some will go to church. I hope that whatever you do your day is filled with happiness and the love of friends and family.
This is the Chapel on the Rocks in Sedona. Click on the photo so that you can see the beauty of the red rocks.

Gallery of colors.


Another gallery in the downtown area. I love the small patio ballons blowing in the wind.

Woo Hoo its Friday


Don't you just hate the week after vacation has ended and you have to go back to work. I don't know about you but I am ready to pack up a trailer like this one and head out to the woods or lake just to sit and listen to what Mother Nature is saying. Happy Friday everyone!

Double trouble


Cherubs anyone? These were also in the Vintage store from yesterdays picture. Not really my taste but to each his/her own.

Give someone the bird


The Phoenix bird that is. This was at one the local vintage stores in the area. There are great deals to be had if you like vintage furnishings.

Lawn art or Travelocity commercial?


The Travel Gnome attacked by bear, news at eleven. You have to love this guys sense of humor.

It must be Monday.

Not sure which Volkswagon is hers. I wouldn't mind having the older one. Happy Monday everyone!
