Are you ready? We are hiking the Gray Fox Trail at the White Tank Mountain Regional Park. It is one of my most favorite places on earth.

I don’t know what this bird is, but she has a lovely song!

Desert Marigolds are beautiful as well.

Oh, how I wish these old Saguaros could talk! The history they have seen!

I love how the light filters through the spines of the cholla. They look so soft and fuzzy…..let me assure you, they are not! You’ll need pliers to get them out of your shoes or flesh!

Here’s a closer look.

I love the endless variety here!

How crazy is this?

You never know what you will find along the way.

Happy trails!
Have you seen the movie “Branded”with Allen Ladd? His character is called cholla. Good old western movie!
Lovely!
