I decided to do another dps for Michele's "It's a Heat Wave" challenge. We had to use a sun or orange. This spread has both.
Journaling: I love living in Arizona. Besides having so many sunny days to keep my spirits up, there are innumerable beautiful places and things around. One day recently I had an appointment in Scottsdale, about 25 miles from home. The weather was perfect, so I decided that IÂ’d bring my camera along. Along the way home, I stopped at Camelback Inn, to take some photos and just bask in the beauty of the grounds. It was a real treat to be out in such a lovely setting on a gorgeous day in May. Some of the foliage was already gone for the season, but thereÂ’s always something blooming.
I consider myself so fortunate to have places like this to enjoy so close to my home. Yes, summers can be hot in the Valley of the Sun, but beauty like this definitely makes up for it!
