Desert Horses

Welcome to my horse blog, Desert Horses. We live in the desert southwest, near Palm Springs, CA, but board our horses up in our local mountains where it is cooler in the summer. I have 3 horses, all rescues. Here is the ranch up the mountains where the horses stay.

Flowers in my front garden

 I don't have many flowers now, mostly sunflowers out back, some cosmos, zinnias, and black eyed Susans out front.   July and August are BRUTAL here in the desert southwest and by August, everything is pretty much DONE.   Even the commercial farms let their acreage lie fallow during the first two weeks of August.   Nature takes a rest and we ALL just hunker down and try to survive!

I went out front yesterday morning, however, and took some photos of the flowers out front that I currently have.

Enjoy!
