Real and Unreal Garden

This morning we decided to take advantage of the lovely weather and visit the Desert Botanical Garden. Anthony and Sara are visiting for a few days on their Spring Break and the gardens are a great place to see the Sonoran desert plant life.
The wildflowers were out in bloom.
Interspersed throughout the garden was the glass artwork of Dale Chihuly. Sometimes the glass are looked like alien plants from a sci-fi movie. But it was really quite impressive how art can imitate life.

This made me realize just how much I miss the desert in the spring... Someday soon I have to see it again!
