                                    Saltcedar, Tamarix ramosissima
                                                                          

I had to look real hard this time in this rather ugly desert that's surrounding us but I found it .....SPRING has sprung....again!



          Velvet Mesquite (Prosopis velutina)

 ?
 

Quite a lot of the 'snowbirds' are starting to leave us, slowly moving back to their summer places, mostly somewhere in Canada.          
                  
So instead of a full-on potluck we decided to go for a cocktail hour with appetizers this month since there's only such a small crowd  of us.
 

      


'Only some appetizers', ....yeah.... right.... there was still plenty of course!


Puh, I don't know what you're talking about....


We had some famous visitors from blog-land staying a couple of days at the campground this week. I don't know if you ever read the blog but this is the Scholl Bus of the Scholl family.
I never met anybody before that I've read the blog of, it was so cool to say hello and tell them that I'd been following theirs! Sometimes I feel a little lonely out there! (It doesn't help that mine is private, I know)
But maybe I've seen or met more people who blog but just don't follow, or recognize, them?
Their bus is hard to miss of course.








One of our guests had a little bit of a too good of a time at the Spirit Mountain casino and drove into the wall at the campgrounds entrance!
It was quite a crash but fortunately he was unhurt himself. His car fared a little less good and the wall got the worst of it as you can see.
It was quite the 'talk of the town' for a while. Nothing ever happens here.....

  1. Yep, it sounds like you're ready to move on to your next destination too. I have met quite a few fellow bloggers in the last few years, but as you said, that's because most of us have public blogs. I always find the experience enjoyable.

    I'll have to check out the Scholl Bus.
