My Monday post about what is going on around my home...
Last Monday I met for lunch,
the wonderful Joanna from the blog "Haliburton Hill"
Who is spending a few weeks meandering her way through the Southwest with husband, two dogs and a RV.
Thank goodness one of their stops was Tucson, Arizona !
We met at the wonderful "El Charro" restaurant and as usual I forgot to take some photos because I was talking way too much.

I am always amazed by Joanna's photography and if you have the chance check out her wonderful blog that is based just outside of Victoria B.C.
As a desert dweller, I so enjoy the chance to visit other places so different from mine.
I must tell you that the differences from where we live is truly night and day.

Today's post is a favorite series of monsoon photos from July, 2011
Taken in the span of a few minutes, the ever changing fast moving monsoons clouds at sunset.

Wow, those are amazing photos, I feel a slight sense of apprehension looking at them. You can just see that weather means business!
ReplyDeleteI think the when your here with all the big sky around you you don't feel so apprehension as much as exhilaration... plus these photos are looking north and west, behind me south and east was blue sky with a few clouds.
DeleteThe monsoons in Tucson are very exciting.
You have a fantastic place to view our monsoons, awesome captures!
ReplyDeleteI bought my home because of where it was not the condition... I have had to do a lot of repairs. But I love my view.
DeleteHow wonderful to be able to see skies like this from your own backyard. Lucky you and lucky square ones too.
ReplyDeleteYes we are so lucky to live here. I could look at the view all day.
DeleteWow! And why do big skies always make me think of God? Must go back to childhood...
ReplyDeleteYes, they do because who could have thought up such beauty.
DeleteVery dramatic skies!
ReplyDeleteThe skies change all the time in monsoon season. It is amazing.
DeleteI don't get to Tucson much but when I do - that's where I eat! It's my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteIt's making my mouth water just thinking about it.
Love the cloud pic's. We live in kind of a magical place I think. The desert is so mysterious and beautiful, although it took me years to see it.
One of the oldest and best restaurants and a lot of fun....
DeleteWhat incredible and dramatic clouds!
ReplyDeleteLike you, I love the blogging world and the chance to see parts of the world so different from home.
Wow! What ethereal clouds!
ReplyDeleteSuperb!
