Spring in the desert

It is spring wildflower season in the Arizona desert! Eric & I went out hiking in the White Tank Mountain Regional Park this evening. The air smelled heavenly, and there were flowers just everywhere. You don't necessarily think of the desert being a haven for blooms, but it is just gorgeous at this time of year. Take a peek...

Yup, that is me in the field of flowers. I had to be careful not to sit on any cactus spines. Totally worth it.

(Eric took the shots of me, and I took the rest.)
