This and that

I took way too many photos, but I think most of us do that in this digital age. They’re so easy to get rid of. The day that I drove to Tombstone and Bisbee, I stopped for gas and saw this sign. I definitely knew I wasn’t in Kansas anymore. I find it interesting that there’s no smoking in this establishment. Marijuana-sign

Pretty parasol, not sure if it would do much good. In a Tombstone window.

Random sighting at the Burger King near Bisbee. I love the juxtaposition of this man, his backpack, and his laptop.

Saguaro-drawing

Botanical drawing of the saguaro cactus and the many ways it has been used.

We have lots of cactus in Texas, but I had never seen this purple variety. They were all over the Scottsdale area. Some even had cochineal growing on them.

This is the bark of some sort of palm in the Sonora Desert Museum. I love the soft colors and the shapes of the bark.
