Today’s “Photo Every Day 2023” photo is another selfie, and it’s a bit of a follow-up to yesterday’s photo.

Today’s “Photo Every Day 2023” photo is actually from today.

When we hiked the Pinnacle Peak trail, we got to the highest point that is possible without doing any actual rock climbing.

While I do not personally have first-hand experience with it, I have been reliably informed that these “Teddy Bear Cholla” do not feel the same as they look.

This crazy little guy is called an “Arizona Barrel” cactus.

As an Ohio native, I am always so amazed by the landscape and the flora and fauna of a place like Arizona.

We had a free afternoon one day while in Arizona, and decided to spend it hiking the Pinnacle Peak trail.

A full 30 years after his You Might Be a Redneck If… routine (which was recorded in 1992), and Jeff Foxworthy is still just as funny as ever. 

The emcee of the event in Arizona was a guy named Harris III. He did a great job as an emcee, but he also took an evening to share some illusions and perform some tricks. 

That overly-intense, extremely outgoing man who shook my hand at the entrance of Dave & Buster’s has become a dear friend whom I love, deeply admire, and pray for every week.

Another highlight from our time spent in Arizona was hearing from my buddy Jon Burdette on Friday and Saturday morning.

One of the amazing blessings of leading worship at a recent event in Scottsdale, AZ was getting to hear the legendary Michael W. Smith perform songs from his incredible career as a Contemporary Christian Music artist and songwriter.

For the rest of March I will be sharing photos from my most recent trip to Arizona.

On our way out of the Masai Mara National Park, I saw the one and only grey crowned crane of our entire trip.

The lilac-breasted roller is considered to be the national bird of Kenya because of the wide array of colors on its feather coat.

Off in the distance we saw a dying tree. Perched in the tree was a committee of vultures.
