Spring in AZ

During this time of year there are a lot of trees in bloom. I love it when the trees are blooming. I always want to take pictures and never have my camera with me. The other day I took my blackberry out and took a couple of pictures when I left work. The yellow flowered trees are Palo Verde Trees.
They are lovely when in bloom. This trees are in front of the hospital where I work.

This is an ocotillo bush, this branches were used as fences by the early AZ Pioneers.

A close up of the blooms. Yes I was in my car, waiting for the light to change.
There is one more tree I want to get a picture of that has purple flowers, but I haven't been close enough to take a picture. Maybe tomorrow.
Vacation officially starts at 2:30 PM tomorrow May 1st!! I'm so ready!!

Snow on our Mountains

Tuesday night while driving to have dinner with Kierra & Will for dinner. I noticed there was snow on the mountains to the East of us. I did whip out my camera and took two pictures but they were very poor quality. So on Wednesday I took my camera to work and took pictures out of the 5th story window. It is a real treat for me to see the snow on the mountains. There wasn't a lot but I enjoyed it. See for your self!

I know for you folks who live in the land of lots of snow, don't think much of this but remember I'm in Mesa AZ.
