It was muddy today after the rain we had Friday and yesterday, so instead of a bicycle ride we pushed Scott in the stroller. He took his helicopter thingy along.
And he hugged it and told it that he loved it!
Strolling along the road about half a mile from our motorhome.
Scenery along the way.
Rare mushrooms. You don't often get the right weather for them here in the desert.
The rock garden. Someone works on this regularly and adds to it. It's expanded a lot since we first saw it in 2010. We don't know who they are and when they come. Pictures don't do justice and don't show the size of it.
Scott and Steven standing near the top edge of the rock garden.
This rock "sculpture" is a fish. It's about 8' from nose to tail.
A snake rock 'formation'.
Walking back to the motorhome.
If you look close you can see our motorhome down the road. That's our campsite.
Our campsite.
Same one we had last year.
The bushes around us are Tamarisk, and they lose their 'leaves', which are feathery sets of needles. When we first got here a couple weeks ago they were still green, and quickly turned yellow and fell off. They'll start getting new needles around March.
In the afternoon I met a friend in "the city" and among the places we went was a chocolate factory and the adjacent "Cactus Garden", which is decorated for Christmas.
My favorite decoration: an inflatable camping trailer!
Me!
I know it looks like a jumble but in person, it is spectacular.
There were moving lights too, which of course you can't see in a 'still' photo.
