An Enchanted Winter Escape

I confess that I am one of those people who loudly complains of the heat here in Arizona during our long summer months.  Our short winter here is my "summer"!  It is a chance to explore areas here in the desert and really appreciate their magic and beauty.  Our Agua Caliente park is one of those and it is truly a desert oasis due to a miraculous natural spring.  (Miracle because it's water.) 

Here are some pictures that I took the week before I took my niece here for her fashion blog photos.  http://ispyfashiondiary.blogspot.com/  I love the forest of palm trees, friendly ducks floating everywhere, and notice the turtles!  Too cute!  And the believer in me is sure that there are fairies merrily hiding around every little nook and cranny, keeping a watchful eye on their beautiful home.  So for everyone out there in the cold...here is a little winter escape.
