My summer here in Arizona has been amazing, and will continue although the rains have finally come.  While we have not been able to collect any seeds yet, it seems promising in the next couple of weeks.

No words or pictures can do justice to the places that I have seen. The plants out here are amazing now that they are starting to bloom. My plant list has almost doubled in the past couple of weeks, and the habitat range around the state is truly remarkable.  I’m so lucky and fortunate to have gotten this internship, and the opportunity to learn so much more. The desert storms are fun to watch, just watch out for lightning. 🙂
