Nature at Your Convenience

On M & G's recommendation, the Beck and I caught the Chocolate & Chile Festival at the Phoenix Desert Botanical Garden. The chocolate and the chiles were nice - in a weird, touring show artsy crafty kinda way - but the grand jungle of desert plant life that sits in the middle of urban Phoenix made the day. Here's a little table of various shots; you can check out the whole set of photos over at Flickr.
