Time for this beautiful flowers to appear! They might be around for only a couple of weeks but when they are here and blooming they bring a smile to all to see them for Spring Is Here in the desert. I hope you enjoy this impressionist feel here on these beautiful flowers.

Lucinda Walter replied:
The fields on the desert floor and on the mountains were covered in these beautiful flowers, even if for a short period of time. But while they lasted it brought new life to those here, as we felt that spring had come to the desert floor and the season of winter was gone again. Oh, I hope you will be able to see this wonderful sight Nick! Thanks much, my friend!
