I took a quick trip with my wife this past weekend to Arizona to visit my parents who just moved to Scottsdale. I was able to shoot a few images during the short time we had. One of the things I love about Arizona is that the climate and scenery varies so much in a short time. Cactus and palm trees in Phoenix, snow, mountains, and red rock, a couple hours north in Sedona. I'm sure I'll be visiting often and I am looking forward to exploring the rest of the state.
It's been a long week and a half dealing with ice, snow, and freezing temperatures. The last time the grass was visible here was New Years Eve. I really need a vacation somewhere warm to get me in a happier mood. This winter seems to be dragging on forever.
