Where we live now vs. where we're from

[Guest guest]

The most lovely time is spring, after a winter when it rains in Nov and Dec.

That is when the wildflowers, cactus, and suculents all bloom. It is really

nice. That has only happened 2 years out of the 7 I have lived here. That

is the desert floor. There are some wonderful places in the mountains, with

pines, and real greens, but they are quite a way a way from here. Things

are so different and unusal in the desert, that by all means be sure and

visit.

No thoughts of moving there, but would love to visit some day and see

what the life, climate, architecture, and landscape are like.
