Where’s the Warmth????

I’m afraid the snow and cold have followed us to Arizona. It was freezing in OKC, and we left there a day early to be ahead of the blizzard that hit Albuquerque. We are now in Tucson and there has been snow just above us the last two nights. High today was only 43!

We are settled in our house, and this is our view up the mountain. 

Even the poor little cacti are shivering. 

On our way to Tucson from Albuquerque, we pass through Hatch, NM, the Chili Capital of the World. They grow a wide variety of chilies, including the NM green chili. The chili is one of New Mexico’s state vegetables!  Uncle Sam likes ‘em too.
