Deserts and Beyond

Deserts and beyond...places in and around the southern California deserts and beyond. Photo taken at Canyon Lake, in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona, December 2011. A few minutes later, after the sun disappeared, these cliffs were their normal color. They were only golden for a short time and I'm glad we were able to view them in their glory.

Desert pond



Yes, there ARE ponds in the desert.  And, our locally financed golf course and resort has several of them.  I haven't even seen them all yet.  I know of at least 4 there.  Every weekend when I take my morning walk, I discover another one, if I walk a different way!  I love this one, however.  It's the biggest one I've found (so far) and it has lots of ducks on it.  There are reeds on three sides of it, which make nice hiding places for the ducks.  I may walk back there this morning for another look!
