This photo was taken at the west side of Superstition Mountain from Lost Dutchman State Park on March 1, 2008.  Many visitors were there anxiously awaiting the wild flower bloom–which is expected to be spectacular this year due to a higher than average spring rainfall.

My sister and I traveled to Maine in October, 2003.  We flew to Manchester, New Hampshire,  rented a car and drove along the coast to Bar Harbor.  The colors and scenery were spectacular!

Rock formation in Navajo land located in northeast Arizona in northwest New Mexico. Traveling through this area at sunset is a colorful experience.

These pictures were taken at sunrise in Chandler, Arizona.

My sister and I traveled to Michigan a few years ago where we found most of the lighthouses along our pathway around the state.  This one happened to have just the right amount of light behind it to make a good memory.

This photo was taken from the south side of the mountain in the springtime. Blooming yellow wildflowers covered most of the fields.

I love the old traditional lighthouses and with this is one of my favorites–overlooking the ocean but not surrounded by it. The keepers of the light did not have an easy job to do without electricity.  It must have been a solitary,  yet somewhat peaceful way to live.
