What has pulled me into the desert?

See our little friend we found at the Desert Botanical Gardens? So cute!

These gardens aren’t for everyone… they aren’t overflowing with flowers, they aren’t brimming with blossoms, they aren’t stuffed with stunning colorful treasures…

But here, when you do find color – it makes you take pause –  It makes you so thankful for the tiny splash of color in an otherwise drab setting.

What has pulled me into the desert? What has made me fall in love with the mountains? Whatever it  was, I did. I fell head over heals. I love my view of the mountains. I love the early morning light. I love the strange shapes of the cactus, rounded and gentle, against the edges of the mountains.

Find beauty today. Find it where you least expect it. Then, share it with someone.
