desert views

I have fallen woefully off the wagon of my intent since our move to Southern Arizona. It was my desire to take a photo every day for the next year, to help me stay in the moment and appreciative of the great beauty of my daily life. Though the photos have not been taken religiously, the acknowledgement and appreciation of the beauty has definitely been present! I am happy & blessed to be living where we are, sharing this great expanse of a house with the three people I like best in the world. Joy! Contentment!

I am back in the saddle; look for more frequent, photographic postings!

Here are a few snaps taken the other day that I want to share.
