I never write this blog with the idea that anyone actually is listening but my computer. But I suppose that's how cyberspace works. You put it out there and it's there. This blog is that silent listener for me. It's my horrendously underpaid psychiatrist.

Desert Beauty in Oro Valley

Tohono Chul Park just North of Tucson

I got to visit Arizona this weekend and spend some time in the desert with my parents. I can't say I've really appreciated the desert so much as I do after that visit. It is amazing how nature has the ability to adapt to any surrounding or situation. It really is intriguing and beautiful. We got to admire the birds and plants that are able to grow there. I even heard a havalina snort in the distance.

Although I would not say that I came away thinking that I want to move there (especially when it would get to be 90 degrees and above). But I can say that I truly enjoyed my visit and don't look at it in the same light as I used to. I'm sure I would miss the pine trees, water, mountains, and lush greenery of the pacific northwest. That's truly where my heart is.
