exploring Fish Creek Canyon near Phoenix, Arizona...
sky growls overhead
rocky road winds on and on
adventure awaits
Fish Creek
with spiny sage green prickles
kiss speckled blue sky
jaunty white petals
with cheery yellow centers
swaying breezily

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I really love the one of the daisies! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos as always! Once again, you've made me really want to take a trip out west.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty place to explore! It looks like it's hundreds of miles from the hustle and bustle of Phoenix.
ReplyDeleteI should have known you'd choose desert for your 'D' post. lol Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to get out and take a walk (if it wasn't 12 degrees out!)
ReplyDeleteI used to visit Arizona often and miss my time there!
Beautiful! I don't think I have ever been there and I grew up in Phoenix.
ReplyDeleteLovely descriptions to go with lovely photos...I really like visiting Arizona and would love to return (take a break from Wisconsin winters in February or March!) - maybe someday. Your scenery is such a dramatic change from we are used to up here. Thank you for sharing.

Good photos of this extraordinary place.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I know this canyon, but it looks like high clearance access so I doubt I'll get there!
ReplyDeleteI love your spare and delicious descriptions of the area. This was an absolutely delightful link.
Arizona is such a land of extremes...the water and the cactus, the decorative frill of the flowers against the hardscape rock striations.
Just absolutely lovely.
Thank you for sharing this.
