I love love love the high desert. While its not green in a woodsy, grassy, overflowing gteen it is green.
Each plant stakes a claim to the amount of dirt it requires to provide it water. Very few share. My land is fed by snow and summer monsoons to the tune of a whopping 9 inches of rain per year... used to be 12....
Satellite view the straight white lines are my property border... its Ell shaped. The zig zaggy lines define a combination of fences that exist and fences that I want. The bare parts are where vehicles have been. Or horse corral. When you stand on the road that crosses through my land you see nothing but chaparal thats a good 20 feet tall in some places.
The road that crosses through follows a seasonal stream bed. the lower right hand corner is all sand which I could harvest carefully if I needed it. Its also where the majority of my neigbors fire wood comes from... LOL.
