Camelback Mountain, Two Views

 

At the beginning of the week, we had lots of rain and much cooler temperatures.  I snapped the above photo on Monday looking at Camelback Mountain from where I live.  I liked how the top of the mountain had some sunshine on it while the darker clouds were still hovering around.

On Tuesday we had some more rain but later in the afternoon it started to clear.  I decided to take a walk at the Desert Botanical Garden so I headed that way around 3:30 in the afternoon.  I climbed up the steep trail where I could get a view of Camelback Mountain from the south and looking north.  An added bonus was all the big, puffy clouds in the sky.

I enjoyed all those clouds scattered across the sky.

Theme Day: Soft

 

A nice, soft pillow is always welcome when one is thinking about taking a nap.  If a pillow isn't available, we might look for the next best thing.  One of these two beautiful golden retrievers has found just the right soft spot to rest a weary head.  

I saw these two relaxing at an artist's booth at this year's Celebration of Fine Arts back in January.  They seemed perfectly content in their temporary accomodations.
