For those of you who are already beginning to miss being in the garden there is a place to get your winter garden fix. The Desert Botanical Garden is in bloom and has two wonderful exhibits for December. Chihuly has opened another glass exhibit which will be in the garden until May. You can visit in the daytime or at night when it is lit up. In addition, the garden has their usual holiday fun with Los Noches de las Luminarias. This is an evening exhibit with luminarias lighting up the garden, food and drink, and a variety of music throughout the garden. If you haven't had a chance to see it, it is a must holiday event to get you in the spirit. Reservations are required. The web site is:

Update:
My husband I just returned from Phoenix and both of these events are a must see. Chihuly was spectacular at night. I am adding one of my photos. I have so many great photos that it was difficult to choose one. There were probably more than 20 different pieces throughout the garden. Enjoy!
