I need to get to know Tucson better and came across this link

Perhaps another reason for you to visit one day???

Great photos! I haven't tried the video yet as I am downloading a backup of megapixelworld right now!
I have been in Phoenix for a few days many years ago, but I heard Tucson is much better :)

Thanks for the links. I just love the desert and I day I hope to go back there.

Beautiful place but it has to be HOT! one day maybe I'll visit there too.

Nice link Lisa! I have been to Phoenix, but not Tucson (no, I wasn't with Olly) :)

Do you have very large scorpions there? Here in Austin, there are scorpions but they are pretty small.

Actually, we've lived here almost a year and just saw our first one. It was BIG but not so much after my husband stepped on it. I didn't get a picture first and was kind of disappointed in a weird way :( We found a small one inside and I stepped on that one, but it was about the size of a spider and not quite so intimidating. If those are the only ones I see I'll be very happy.

In the South of France we also have little scorpions (and I do have a photo somewhere :D) and in London, none so far ;)
