I found this flower in the botanical gardens; I so wanted to touch it as it looked like a ribbon.

FRIDAY
F - For what does one gain when you miss the moment -

I - Interest points along the way missed;
D - Dancing opportunities gone by the wayside;
A - And surprises lost forever.
Y - Yield to the hunch and take a moment now and look around; what is there that brings you delight?

This morning I saw a bird out the window who had just taken a bath; it was evident by the wet feathers. And he was singing to his heart's content with his beak as wide open as it could go - listen to the birds sing today!!! June

Enjoy the pictures that I gathered from the spring desert in the last week or so.

A - Arise above the chaos and get a different perspective?

Well, my dear friends, I am not sure how much I will be around as we leave tomorrow morning from our house just after 6 and return back to Phoenix next Wednesday afternoon.
