The northern edge of the Sonoran Desert often has the reputation of being a barren place with very little to offer in terms of vegetation save for the famous saguaro cactus whose bloom is the state flower of Arizona.  Interestingly, with the rain that we have experienced down here this winter, we have seen all kinds of vegetation poking through including wild daisies which love to spring up on the hillsides.  This photo was taken from a moving car on the Carefree Highway, and doesn't do much justice to how beautiful the scene was, but shows just how green the desert can get this time of year.  If you ever get tired of the snow and ice like I did about 10 years ago, give us a call, and we can help you find that perfect desert getaway.
