https://www.mreavoice.org/80fw4dyac1x A drive along this road isa journey from desert grasslands (at less than 5,000’ elevation) to Ponderosa pine forest (near 7,000’). In October, the desert floor springs to life with flowers and new growth. Rabbitbrush glows bright yellow against the black cinders, remains from the nearby volcanic eruption, the red rock in the distance, and the blue sky.

https://mocicc.org/agricultura/ci1qe1s15o Arizona is one of my all-time favorite states. Traveling once from the Phoenix area to the Grand Canyon revealed completely different topography with every turn. The Flagstaff area is bsolutely one of the most fascinating places on this earth. But then again, I simply love everything about Arizona. I’m envious that you are there and I am here!
