There is a place in Mesa were the developments along a large power line have taken a less than desirable situation and turned it into place to go. The space that normally sits unused and unkept has been transformed into a beautiful walk and home to plants, birds and critters alike. The neighborhoods have contributed plants that grow native to the region and the people along the route help to maintain the area. While my longtime friend from high school (Linda) and I walked the trail, we enjoyed the experience with humming birds, hawks and even a silver fox and parrot. Many of the plants have labels to let you know what you are seeing and the backyards flow into the space, extending their yard. With the warm weather and recent rains the cactus are beginning to bloom a month early. What a great idea!
