palo verde

Is there a more beautiful tree on Earth than the palo verde?

Here’s an oldie from my travel journal, while I work on some new stuff for next week. I’d usually be with family in the desert southwest right about now, but this year I’ll have to make do with memories.

I miss the shock of green after spring rain, the tenacity of life in the harshest of conditions, the stars, the stars. But I can be patient, everything has its season.

See you next week, back in space.
