The city of Tempe had a brand new event this last weekend called Tempe Blooms. They filled the downtown area with a variety of floral arrangements and lots of live music. If this event was designed to draw people to downtown Tempe, it was a huge success. There were so many people out it was hard navigate the sidewalks.
This sunflower covered saguaro arrangement was the first one I photographed and I didn't notice the "No Loitering" sign on the wall behind it until I down loaded the photo.
The flowers were beautiful but the huge crowds of people made it difficult to photograph them all.
I took the light rail out to Tempe because parking in the city is a challenge and with an event going on it would be impossible. I haven't been on the light rail for several years now so that was a bit of an adventure in itself.
A colorful event, people photos to come?
ReplyDeleteThat sunflower saguaro is so playful and cheery. Sunflowers are my favorite flower. The groovy VW is fun, too.
ReplyDeleteI should ride the light rail the next time I am there. There is a conference in Phoenix a year from now that I will likely need to attend.
ReplyDeleteI love the floral Volkswagen!
ReplyDeleteThose cacti are fun, Sharon. It isn't surprising that so many people came out for the event since it looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteThe best event so far this year in Tempe!
ReplyDeleteIf I still lived in "the Valley", I'd ride the light rail all the time.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are so beautiful!
