Great shot, David. See how a blanket of snow can give your familiar environment a new look.

I'll bet those cacti are surprised.

Good shooting, David. Like Slobodan, I'll be happy to stay in Florida. The shot must be fairly far north in Arizona. I remember being in blizzards in Flagstaff.

Nothing wrong with snow and cold. Kills off insects and street gangs. :)

Thanks for the comments folks. Near Sedona, about 3000 ft below Flagstaff. About a foot fell last night! Unusual.

David, you are depressing me.  I planned a trip to Arizona the first week of March: Sedona, Phoenix, and Tucson. 

I like the colors in your image.

Mark, don't be depressed. It's supposed to warm up next week. The snow will have melted from the red rock by then. Enjoy.
Rob, that's why the old avoid the cold and retire to warm places!

Does all this desert snow bode well for a good flower bloom this year?

I would say yes!
