Have a nice weekend!

I have photographed this big, wonderful Agave plant in the yard by the "Casa Grande" National Monument, close by Florence,AZ


AGAVE
A genus of plants (order Amaryllidaceae) of which the chief species is the maguey or century plant (A. Americana), wrongly called Aloe. It is from ten to seventy years, according to climate, in attaining maturity, when it produces a gigantic flower stem, sometimes forty feet in height, and perishes. The fermented juice is the pulque of the Mexicans; distilled, it yields mescal. A strong thread and a tough paper are made from the leaves, and the wood has many uses.



Hi my friends,

I wish you all a nice weekend!!

Tomorrow we will be hitting the road again, our relaxing time is over. We've enjoyed our stay here in pretty (and finally warm enough for us) Arizona very much.

Actually we don't like to go away and to leave the warm weather behind us...but life has to go on, right?....LOL... Just now we still don't know where to go, in which direction...In the N and NE it's still cold....right? :))

Thanks for all your wonderful compliments these last days to my postings, stay with me also when we are out there on the road again. I'll try to keep up looking to your blogs also - if I'll have good connections. :)

See ya' later...!
Susanne and David
