Oh the weather outside is… frightful? Delightful? Here in Tucson, it’s pretty much “all is calm, all is bright” most of the time.
A couple of posts back, Liz wrote about the falling white stuff that was happening there on the east coast. It looks a little different here on the “west coast” . (I know, Tucson isn’t exactly the coast, but we ARE in the west…the wild, wild west!) See, we do have lots of green… it’s just in the form of a whole lotta CACTI. And when Christmas time rolls around…just take a LOOK of how it’s decked out. Santa Hats. Kind of silly, really. But seriously…you can see Santa hats on all KINDS of cacti here.

Really, who decided this was festive? Not a good look, I don’t think. And WHO THE HECK climbs up there? Ouch!!
But the last few days, it’s been pretty cold! (Well, for us Tucsonans anyway. Winter and 60 degrees and we are breaking out the scarves, baby! Kind of fun to wear a fuzzy scarf now and then. We gotta do it while we can.

(And check out this colorful pile of soft warm fuzziness that Mama C brought to me when she arrived for the holidays…. she loves to knit scarves! Yay!)
Today, the wind blew in and a storm hung around… RAIN! And tomorrow, we MIGHT wake up to a scenic view of snow on our mountains. Or, we might get something like this. Either way, it will be nice. And we won’t need a snowblower!
