I love Spring!


Everywhere I look right now, I see cactus blooming.  Along the streets, in landscaped areas, in peoples yards and of course, at the Desert Botanical Garden.  Those prickly cactus are putting on their annual show.

Here is a selection of blooms that I photographed just last Friday.  The desert is bursting with color.  Between the wildflowers, the cactus and the resort landscapes, Phoenix and the surrounding cities are looking pretty good.

I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today.  It's all about memorable meals in New York City.
