Walks around Desert Gardens near Florence AZ

Sunday, February 14, 2016

It is Valentine's Day.  There is nothing more special than getting to spend a leisurely day with your sweetheart.  After sleeping in a little, I fixed breakfast for us.  We visited with some of our new neighbors.  After a delicious home-cooked steak and potato dinner we decided to take a walk through the desert.

This jet looks like it is coming close to the moon.  

The sun was starting to set.  The colors in the sky are constantly changing.  So beautiful!

As were headed to the edge of the park into the desert, these people were gathered.  Look at the size of this parrot.  We later learned this lady is called the "Bird Lady".  We have yet to visit with her and her parrot.

The clouds in the sky are making creative patterns.

This picture is of the same area as above but not zoomed in.

It is amazing how fast the sunset changes.  Tonight the orange colors in the sky are exceptionally bright. 

Looking up, Tic got this closeup of the moon.  He's an amazing photographer.

This is looking back eastward.  It is amazing to me how light and pink the sky looks this direction when it looks so orange in the westward direction.

This is our final sunset picture for tonight.  

On our way home, we visited with a group of people we had not met before.  Everyone here is so VERY friendly!  We think we are going to truly enjoy our new winter home.

We walk in the evenings most every night.  Most nights have absolutely gorgeous sunsets.  Monday was no exception.
just going to post the pictures from this evening.  Enjoy!

We so enjoy God's artwork here in the desert!
The pictures from this evening were taken within a 15 minute period.  Magnificent!
