We are nature


That's how I feel. Sometimes we forget that we're as much a part of nature as are the wild animals and the mountains.


Every evening I wait for the mountains behind my house to turn pink as the sun slips down to a certain point. The glow only lasts a minute, then I turn around and watch the western sky turn into a brilliant sunset.


During the day, the Sonoran Desert is green under a brilliant blue sky, and it makes me so happy to be out in it. These photos are from this morning's walk at Catalina State Park



In a few days I'll be visiting this little wild child of nature, my curly-haired Juniper whose hair cannot be tamed. When her mom asked what she was doing, she said, "Tidying up." Good girl!
 

Have a colorful day

Our mountains are to the west, so I do the opposite- enjoy the glorious sunrise, then wait for the glow on the peaks! As for your adorable wild child, her hair reminds me of mine when I was a toddler - seen pix, and it was like cotton candy! Hope you have a lovely visit!
