Outer Space

Arizona is really pretty. The palm trees are so serene and calm, and there are lots of colorful flowers and green grass, and everything is bathed in warm sunlight. Everything seems to come out of a book!

When we were there, I liked to take a few minutes out of the day to just go outside alone and really think about nature. What might the trees be thinking? What might the birds be feeling? What might the flowers say if they could talk? In those minutes, I somehow felt attached to nature, as if I were a part of it.

I think that if people did that every day, just took a few minutes and thought, it would pretty much put an end to pollution, littering and you name it. And if this planet is completely ruined where will we live, hmm? Mars?

Click!

When we were driving to Arizona, it rained and the clouds were so low they nearly brushed the tops of our heads. Literally. 

When we entered Arizona, we saw a lot of red clay and cacti. We also saw a rainbow! It was so perfect and delicate against the bright blue sky, with a few puffy white clouds surrounding it. I tried to take a mental picture of it. I know we were very lucky to see it.
