We desert dwellers welcome the cooler weather that allows us to open our doors and let fresh air into our homes. We also love the weather for the ability to get out there and explore all of the new things going on.
Such is the case when I ventured out to see some street art on 16th street.

Camera in hand I headed across town to see the Mexican American art that is blossoming on the streets and in the alleys of that neighborhood. About a full mile of buildings are painted.

Absolutely fantastic. My camera card is full of fabulous pictures I plan to show here during the coming months. Some of the work is political, much of it is spiritual. It is full of both joy and angst....

During my photo safari I found an awesome authentic taco stand. I had a portabello mushroom taco with cilantro,Jalisco cheese,and red onions, stopped off at the completely stocked salsa bar to add chipotle. YUM
Cool street art! And the portabello taco sounds delicious.
