We've Been Away For A Few Days...

Guess where we went for a few days???


Need a few more clues???


How about this stately Saguaro cactus?


Or this drop dead view of big sky and red, red rocks?

Yes, we flew to Arizona for a few days and soaked up the sunshine, and on a day trip to precariously perched,  ghost infested, mining town of Jerome, we soaked up the exquisite views, frosted in a layer of recently fallen snow..., it was beautiful, the sunshine, the snow, the mountains, the cactus... did I mention the sunshine??? Oh, and some very tasty chicken and queen olive stuffed blue corn enchiladas with incredible jalapeno and cilantro salsa (gluten free of course..) at a wonderful little place called the "Quince Grill & Cantina." Gosh..., I LOVE good SouthWest food...

Here's some snapshots, to share the flavor of one of my favorite states...

Enjoy!

The facade is all that's left of this old building in Jerome.



The Quince Grill & Cantina...(note the icicles on the awning!)


Snow covered twigs against a startlingly blue sky.


The drive home..., sorry to be leaving...
