A New Tree!

Cutting down the mesquite tree left a significant gap in our landscaping so we visited a nearby nursery, were escorted around 27 acres via a golf cart, acquired a new tree, I dug a hole and.....

.....into it went a Raywood ash tree! Ironic since I cut many dozens of dead ash trees in Ohio, victims of the emerald ash borer.  Out here, it should thrive.

Every plant is currently flowering.

Amy and I got in a hilly, 40 mile ride while admiring the great views.

I got out on a 41 mile solo effort which included passing Colossal Cave MP.  

The Rincons in the distance where if you look closely, a rabbit was posing on the above driveway.
