Spring Time

Spent a lot of time lately in Phoenix area.
Between visiting Mayo Clinic, we do get some spare time once in awhile to relax a bit, and check out Desert Botanical Garden. We visited the garden in July one time, it was pretty miserable with the heat.


Shot March 3rd, 2009. It's only March, but Phoenix already reach 89 degrees. It's only dry heat, right? :)

Flowers are coming in. Some of the cactus has started to bloom. I am sure in a few weeks, my allergies will kick in.....

A few days later on the 6th, the temperature only got up to 75, that was really pleasant weather.

Two Shots

Get well flowers for my wife.

Been absent from posting, with more pressing issue to take care of at this time.

I think the group shot is a little too much. Kind of heavy on the PhotoShop side.

I hope all of these media hype is not going to create a negative impact with the new regime, when our economy does not turn around quick enough. It took years of greed (on many levels) to reach this point, and it might get even worse before it gets better.

Good hiking weather, around 70 degrees and sunny.
This outing was different for us, we had a lot on our minds, as we just found out about my wife's medical condition... I am contemplating if I should write about it here.
