Buckeye, Arizona.

The desert is calling and it’s not a wrong number! Lynn and I are getting ready to head south. We’ve already processed our mail forwarding order and are setting up appointments for things that need to be done the first week we are back in Arizona. We will be leaving Fargo in about three weeks and we’ll do a bit of sightseeing along the way. It will be almost a month before we are again enjoying the views of the White Tank Mountains in and around Buckeye. We are looking forward to hiking in Skyline Park. Only a few blocks from our home, the new park has added additional trails for us to explore.

About the photo: In January we visited one of the newest trails, Quartz Mine Trail. This view is from one of the higher points on the trail looking southeast. The larger peak just behind the tree is Estrella Mountain. The image was captured with my Samsung S7 Cell phone. I used an HDR application to bring out the details, but the image is best viewed on a dark surround. On many browsers, clicking on the image will frame the image in black or gray. The rule for Cellpic Sunday is simple. The image must be captured on a mobile device.
