Desert Plants.

I like taking pictures of desert plants. Next year I will like taking pictures of tundra plants, I guess.

San Xavier del Bac Mission

According to their website,
San Xavier Mission is acclaimed by many to be the finest example of mission architecture in the United States. It is a graceful blend of Moorish, Byzantine and late Mexican Renaissance architecture, yet the blending is so complete it is hard to tell where one type begins and another ends.





This is an amazing place. I have been there several times, and each time I am amazed at how elaborate this mission is. I have taken some pictures I really like there, plus I got my glow in the dark Jesus in their gift shop. Any place that sells gitd Jesuses is okay in my book.



This new one is for photos.




I have been taking so many photos lately I need a place to display them all...So the lab rat has a new blog.

About Me

My photo
Army wife for several eons. Three kids, two dogs, no more guinea pigs (one is coyote poo, the other lives somewhere else now.). Moved from desert to almost Arctic because we are crazed.
