Most of those same flowers grow here so I recognize the oleander, hibiscus, jasmine, lantana - and I can see that the rose is happier there than in our heat here. I wonder why? Have a safe trip home. Hopefully the last of the snow will be gone for this season!Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17183404267160772530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-87462455918394710662008-04-19T17:09:00.000-07:002008-04-19T17:09:00.000-07:00What a beautiful walk..with so much to see and adm...What a beautiful walk..with so much to see and admire!<BR/><BR/>blessings, <BR/>kari & kijsakari and kijsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01047434064728375340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-87226093680485362102008-04-19T10:57:00.000-07:002008-04-19T10:57:00.000-07:00I really envy that part of the desert because for ...I really envy that part of the desert because for some reason we just don't get that type of foliage up here! I suppose it's because we're in the high desert and get frost. Who knows! We do have the oleanders here and they are just gorgeous when they bloom. Which is from May until November here. <BR/>Enjoy your trip home and be safe!<BR/>JanJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06571047793757791073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-44203449068261056442008-04-19T10:13:00.000-07:002008-04-19T10:13:00.000-07:00Ha! glad you could get away to the desert.

I'm nursing my poor strained painful back and hope to be healed and in my walking shoes again next week.

Of all the flowers and bushes, the one that strikes me most is the feathery, lacy pink blooms on the tree...so feminine and lovely. You've enjoyed your time and have memories to take with you...journey safely. Hope that your dear hubby is feeling better soon!Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6429786372649785047.post-32153961017669808852008-04-18T23:02:00.000-07:002008-04-18T23:02:00.000-07:00En-gedi is an oasis in the middle of a Judean dese...En-gedi is an oasis in the middle of a Judean desert. It is a paradise of fragrance & fruitfulness. I trust you have been refreshed by the En-gedi of Palm Springs. Songs of Solomon speaks of Jesus Christ being our En-gedi and bringing to us the refreshing sweetness that we long for.<BR/><BR/>I pray you will be well as you travel. Thanks so much for continuing to share of yourselves. We needed to hear from you.
