Sonora Desert Museum and Mt. Lemon

We returned to the Desert Museum for another dose of flora and fauna in this beautiful desert, along with friends from the park.  This time we arrived early enough to see the morning raptor free flight exhibition.

Another day, we also drove up the Mt. Lemon road, starting at 2,800' and reaching 8,000'.  As we climbed, we could see an everchanging view of the Tucson valley.  At 7,000', snow covered the ground up to the road, and children played on sleds and discs.
