Ah, the White Mountains of Arizona. What a great place to escape the desert heat. Last weekend, I accompanied my RVing friends to the annual Bluegrass festival, which is held at the Hon-Dah Resort and Casino. You can count on the summer rains and the cooler temps. A perfect place for a summer escape!
I'm still learning how to use my new camera and took a few snaps of the wildflowers that were all around our campsite. You can click a picture to see it at a larger size.
These red flowers were everywhere.
Check out the little beetle on the upper right flower.
Pretty little wild daisies.
This one reminds me of the desert mallow that grows near my home in the Spring.
I don't know what type of flower this is, but there was this big, fuzzy, orange bee I was trying to photograph. He ended up on the wrong side of the flower, but after taking the picture and viewing it at full size, I was amazed to see there were lots of little black beetles crawling all over the flower.
This one was interesting. Not exactly a flower, but I thought she was cute. Of course, this is my little "Chiquita" taking an afternoon nap.
