Sign of cooler days


IMG_7566, originally uploaded by torri_g.

The Arizona broom bushes started making their change last week and sure enough we have much cooler temperatures. Oh and as of today we have a return of the gusting blowing winds too so sometime in the next couple of days I'm pretty sure that the tree in the back yard will lose all of its leaves and the broom bushes will make it look like it is snowing. I'm hoping to get with the camera and see what fall colors I can find, and if that doesn't work then at least I have the colors of the hot air balloons to look forward to here soon.

I hope that everyone is having a good week so far.

Final Bloom


Blooming, originally uploaded by torri_g.

It is of course fall and every where else there is the turning of leaves that signals it. Here we get the few rare trees that will actually turn beautiful colors but our true sign of fall weather is the Arizona Broom Bushes blooming. They are in full swing now and sending their white fluffy blooms flying through the air with the higher winds that we have had the last couple of days here. Considering the amount of bugs these things draw in for the better part of the year, I personally am always happy to see the blooming going on because it means our much cooler temperatures are arriving very soon.

I hope that everyone has had a quiet Tuesday, and see you all tomorrow with hopefully some more new photo's.
