I told you I'd try and get some pictures of the freeways. It's kind of hard to do going 75 MPH, yes, the speed limit here is 75. We were not going that fast, but it's still hard to get a picture when you're zipping by the subject. I know freeways are not usually very exciting, but the ones in the Phoenix area are works of art. Here's a sample of just one of the designs. They are made out of different colored rocks. Notice NO litter.
This design has a little more detail and even more colors.
This is a good example of the red concrete they use. It blends in with the natural dirt and mountains in the area.
This shows an overpass with a design in the cement and also a section of another design.

We plant bushes along our freeways and they plant cactus. There were actually 3 of them at this spot, but I only managed to get one in my picture.
This is the freeway exit we take to go see Amber and Jerad in Scottsdale. We are on the exit ramp and will be turning left and going under the freeway. As you can see there are designs in the concrete as well as on the side hill with the plantings. What you can't see is the huge design that is under the overpass. I was to close to get a picture of that.
