Last Saturday we spent the afternoon walking at Veterans Oasis Park in Chandler, where I snapped their picture.

I've been working on this page in my moleskin journal for the past couple days, finished it up just now. Zig Millennium pen and M Graham watercolors.

I didn't know that any portion of the Creosote was edible!
