"A little more to the left... there!"
Mike graciously tolerated my insistence on getting the
perfect photos of Flat Spiky out in the great Sonoran Desert. By the third photo, I was carefully placing Spiky under
various cacti spines, rather than positioning him at arm's length for a perspective shot.

| "Teddy Bear Cholla" - AKA "Jumping" Cactus |
This fun opportunity for educational photo journalism (thanks to
Flat Stanley and my nephew's 3rd grade class) got both of us talking about
our previous blogging attempt. After
crossing the U.S. by bicycle, touring
New England, working on
a farm in Kentucky, and making the
big move to the great southwest, we ran out of big and exciting blog ideas... at least, we thought we had.

| Hedgehog Cactus |
Snapping photos of a paper hedgehog next to
a cactus that shares its name reignited our excitement for sharing our own discoveries (no matter how small) with anyone who will listen (or read). We were reminded that adventures don't have to be grand excursions or long trips; discovery can happen in our own backyard, the kitchen, a good book...
And so, ladies and gentlemen, we bring you, "A Lovely Meander." What follows will be our own discoveries as we meander our way through life.
Awesome! So excited to read about your southwest life!
