Arizona

I'm here in Arizona with new granddaughter, helping as Mom & Dad are working spring training with the Cubs.

Everyone should visit Arizona after a long Michigan winter. It lifts the soul to breath in the warmer air, feel the sun with palm trees and cactus everywhere, and seeing the orange and lemon trees colorfully decorated with fruit. Outside our condo a tree has orange size fruit, but the fruit is yellow...maybe grapefruit? A bit sour, but good to eat if you avoid the rine.

God created Arizona. What are these hills and mountains seemingly pushed up from under the crust? Or were they dragged by the glacier of ages past? Do the residents of this place get used to seeing all this beauty? Maybe fresh eyes appreciate it best.

Like my new granddaughter...people call her a "fresh" one...she is seeing the world with all its wonder as new. Her and Amma.
