I did a quick trip to Mesa this last weekend for a funeral. My cousin who was only 75 passed on and out of this life and out of pain. Cancer is so vicious!
Linking to Good Fences.
I finally found my grandfather after 40 years of genealogical research; can you believe it, he changed his last name.

Happy Week to you ~ ^_^
So sorry for your loss - cancer is causing much pain to many families.
These photos are so interesting to me as they are nothing like the scenery in N. Ireland so I enjoyed them very much!
Hi Ruth, I am so sorry for the loss of your cousin. My heart goes out to you. Your photos are beautiful!
Sorry for the loss....but, I tend to think in a positive way instead of feeling sorry for myself...I say "No longer any pain...pain free at last". And then, try and remember the good times had together and smile.
Those flowers are called Mexican Bird of Paradise. And the trees with the green bark is a Palo Verde [translated to Green Stick]. I lived in Tucson for over a decade.
thanks for passing by Ruth, yes there is a castle near the photo i took, it's Chepstow Castle and i will post a view of it in two weeks time.
I am very sorry for your loss too. Lovely photos...especially that bright orange flower! Hugs!
I love your filters are just beautiful including the flower we have those in our backyard and I can't stop taking pictures of them they're so pretty. I love that round building I love defense in fact I love everything you showed us today and thanks for the comment about me being an artist. Not quite but I do like to play

when i visited some friends in arizona, the weather was such a shock! and all the scenery and nature is so different as well.
be blessed!
first time visiting your blog...it was such a joy!
I am so sorry to hear about your cousin. My sister succumbed to it several years ago. It is a terrible and cruel disease. Your photos are lovely, very uplifting.
Sorry about your loss, lovely photos of a beautiful place. I miss my trips to Arizona where my grandfather made his home.
So sorry to hear about your cousin. That's an expensive looking and nice fence!

so sad about your cousin, cancer is angry and painful. your images of that area area are beautiful but wow, 103, that's hot!!!
Arizona is special in many ways. Love your post :)
So sorry about your cousin. It is what is behind the fence that interests me. How beautiful! The tree is rather strange to me. the building does not look like one that people live in; more like a kind of sculpture. It looks like there are no actual rooms. Beautiful clean looking sky. Lovely tour!
I'm sorry to hear about your cousin, Ruth.
Your photos are beautiful!
I'm sorry to hear about your loss, Ruth. I'm glad you were able to go to the funeral. Arizona is like a foreign country, such a very different landscape from Wisconsin! And so interesting and beautiful in its own way.
Interesting buildings and plants in Arizona.
why did your grandfather change his name???
