I miss the smell of fresh cut grass and the shade of a big tree. However, I am learning to appreciate and actually enjoy this desert we live in. I like seeing the mountains in the distance and the vast open sky above.
The Casa Grande mountain is right outside of town and I have been hiking it about twice a week with some friends. Occasionally Jeremiah will venture out there with me. It has been my time out there that God has used to help me enjoy my new surroundings more and more.
Saguaro cactus are everywhere.
You may have heard of the recent dust storms in the Phoenix area. The picture does no justice to the storm. But you can atleast get the feel for it.
