Edward Abby says that the desert is special because things are so scarce there; plants and animals are spread apart, which makes every living thing important.

People either love it or hate it. I love it. There are mountains close enough to the city to make escape from the summer heat easy and fun. In the middle of our winter right now, it is in the 60's, normal for now. A few days a year it gets below freezing at night and the roses die and the bougavilla blossoms turn brown, and lawns (the few small ones that might be seen) go dormant for a few months. The Winter is like Spring, and Spring time is like Summer, and Summer is like a sauna.

Check back with me in July when it is 100+ and humid, and ask me again. But chances are I'll say I love it then too. :-) We are an 8 hour drive away from Disneyland and the ocean, one hour away from the top of Mt. Lemmon where it is 30 degrees cooler, and just 20 minutes from Sabino Canyon, one of my favorite places that has waterfalls, a little river, lots of flora and fauna, and beautiful hiking trails. We have lots of birds and butterflies, lightning storms with radiant rainbows, and some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets on earth.

Yeah, I love it here. :-)

In Maine, we won't see sixty for another few months. Heck, right now it is snowing, (you know, the white stuff that is made of water). No need for an AC. It would only be used for one week out of the year. Instead we have a big unit called a furnace.

:-D

Well, here in Finland we have -15 (Celsius) and lots
of snow. But the picture is nice and fun to solve.
#16: Merili (merilinnuke) on Jan 20, 2010
In Estonia we've had lots and lots of snow for almost two months now (no sign of melting). This morning my thermometer showed -21 Celsius :)

Oh wow. Lauri and Merili, that brings back memories of Wisconsin where I lived for 5 years. Brrrrr.

It was sunny and warm here yesterday. Then weather warnings of a big storm coming. It blew in, very windy, rained all night. This morning, the sun is out and all is calm and pretty again.

The only thing I don't like about Tucson is the style of architecture - mostly flat square houses. But the churches are pretty:

Merili, you inspired a new puzzle. Hope you enjoy it.

Calgary, Alberta, Canada is very sunny today, but with snow & cool temperatures.I don't mind the cold as long as it's sunny. We get a lot of sun in Alberta! Loved the puzzle Teresa! Thanks.
#21: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jan 20, 2010
Thanks, Jewel.

Jota, are you in Maine too? Isn't that Stephen King country?

You are right! Those orange blossoms are such a beautiful aroma in the very early spring. They are pretty too, and inspired a puzzle last year. :-)
#27: Jota (jota) on Jan 21, 2010
I'm next door! Yes! Maine it's Stephen King' territory!

I agree, Hazel. It was 70 today, but I can see snow all over the mountains (one hour away). Just beautiful.
