IMG_3245 April #4 Rich

J-Six West, Pima Co., AZ

My area of the Sonoran/Chihuahuan Desert is rich in Prickly Pear Cacti,
from which my daughter harvests the fruit and makes a delicious Prickly Pear Jam.

Thhe prickly pears look beautiful when they are in flower. I imagine the jam is lovely.

In that case, "Tasty" would be appropriate also.

So interesting to present a picture in a picture. Beautiful view of the desert. I imagine it's getting pretty hot there now. No more snow!
