Nice sunny day today-perfect for a walk around the grounds. There are lots of sidewalks that wind around by our complex and several other "sun city type" accommodations for snow bird folks. The landscape continues to amaze me. The desert is so brown until the brief wild flower blooming. I am surprised to see what thrives here. There is rubble like small to large to boulder size rocks everywhere. And then gravel is the predominant ground cover. Only the golf courses are green and then that is just the greens. The fairways are a constant shade of brown burnt grass.
