Common Nature things -for all places where you lived

Uh, I've spent most of life in various parts of Ohio, but it's funny how different northern Ohio is from down here.

There was a lot more red in northern Ohio in the fall. Here it's mostly yellow, brown and orange.

Crankin, DBF keeps telling me I need to visit AZ (he's in Mesa) in spring. Perhaps I can persuade him to make a trip down to that arboretum owned (partially?) by UA or the Sonoran Desert Museum...quite a drive, I know, but still.

THe Boyce-Thompson Arboretum near Globe, and is interesting, especially with the near-by mining history. But the AZ-Sonora Desert museum is a must see as far as I'm concerned. And if you're into westerns, the "Old Tuscon" movie set next door is interesting, although some of the historic building burned in a massive fire about 15 years ago.
