We have had the good fortune to spend the last few weeks in the Las Cruces, New Mexico area.  It has been a lovely Spring and we have gone for walks almost every day among the flowers in the desert below the Organ Mountains. Here are some pictures from our adventures. We will have another post that is just of flowers up in the next few days.
