I love that Arizona is a place where desert tortoises
thrive. Rarely seen, I chose my own backyard tortoise
for this month's theme, hidden treasures. check out
a sampling of AZ's treasures by visiting the other

the doors - Arizona theme day
doors in the southwest are a thing of beauty.
the rustic ones made of rich solid wood, adorned with clavos,
and framed by Mexican tiles are some of my favorites.
I'll bet my fellow Arizona city bloggers have posted some
great ones - check out the other photos of Arizona doors here:
and I'm in Austin, TX this week, so my postings over the
next few days will be postcards from Austin.

Arizona Theme Day: Old Arizona
the theme is "old Arizona" for this month's Arizona cities group
posting. pictured here is the iconic Snow Cap Drive-In, located
along Route 66, in Seligman, Arizona. the Snow Cap was
built in 1953 by Juan Delgadillo, who was famous for his
antics with unsuspecting tourists. I worked in Seligman
for 5 years and can attest that Juan loved to squirt fake
ketchup at his guests, among other things. Juan died in
2004, but the tradition of fun continues as Juan's sons
continue to serve up burgers, shakes and good humor.
