Desert Beauty

 I don't think I could ever live there but the desert really is beautiful in a very different way than anywhere else.  Here are a few photos of the blooming cactus.  The white ones are in Grandma and Papa's backyard and in the photos below you can see the little reddish pink buds that were covering the plant and when they open they only last about a day!  So it was pretty amazing to see a whole bunch of them open at once.

 And after a fun and sun filled week in Arizona we headed for home. Thanks again Grandma and Papa!!!
 And after traveling by car, plane, train and bus we finally arrived back in West Seattle and went to dinner and hit Husky deli for an after dinner ice cream cone.
