Can you believe it, Foto Friday Fun made it to 100 posts. Thank you to all who have participated. This week features 8 images chosen by readers from my photo archives. Our meme number for the week is 4234. Please link in any day this week by digging into your archives and sharing a photo and story on your blog. Plus check out the other posts linked to the Foto Friday Fun meme.
Shane chose #4234, a lovely Palo Verde tree which are seen scattered around the Sonoran desert. This green skinned beauty I saw while recently camping along Ogilby Road with the Cargo Muchacha Mts as a background.
Sherry chose #775. After hiking from the Wire Pass trailhead this shows the junction to enter Buckskin Gulch slot canyon to the south. Very different colors than the last slot canyon shared in Anza-Borrego.
Sallie forgot to choose a number so I’m giving her #35 for how many words were in her comment. This shot takes us back to a road trip in January 2005 when Darlene and I visited Puerto Cito in Baja Mexico. How do like my ride?
Elaine chose #1212, flowering yucca seen last spring on an outing to Toroweap proving there’s more to see than just the iconic Colorado River view.
Bibi chose #222, “representing tomorrow’s date and just maybe when my daughter’s baby will be born.” Turns out baby Nina was born the 23rd instead. May she grow up to see Grand Canyon and maybe even ride a mule to the bottom. This mule team is just leaving Indian Gardens located about half way along the Bright Angel Trail.
Diane chose #6007 in keeping with her “007” theme and gets a sunrise shot over the Indian Ocean from Tsitsikamma National Park, South Africa taken a year ago on 2/26/14.
Yogi chose #6666, “cause it is 9999 upside down.” Also taken in Tsitsikamma, I sometimes felt upside down on the the waterfall trail. Note the yellow footprints on the rocks to indicate where to go.
Jonker chose #1, “because yours are my favorite blog to follow.” Thank you for this highest of compliments. There were so many #1s, so I chose my 1 year birthday from 1955. Sure wish I could remember what I was thinking at the time. Got a caption for this one?
My choice, an American White Pelican yawning under last light on the Salton Sea from February 24, this year. 
And because so many have asked, and I forgot, the new chair. It’s really quite comfy once I get into it but weighs 25 pounds so is a bit difficult to move around.
Please join in by:
1) Sharing a #4234 photo index number from your photo archives in a post on your blog with a story that goes with the photo. Then add the URL from that post to Mr. Linky below along with your name (Gaelyn, AZ), and link back to Foto Friday Fun 100 in your post so others may read and join in.
2) You can also leave a number between 01 and 9999 in a comment for next week’s Foto Friday Fun.
3) One or both of the above.
First commenter will chose next week’s photo index number.
Do you have a favorite from this week?

Maybe I should get a cup holder like this for my chair.

I love the Pelican great pic!!
I’m going with 8888 this week cuz it is the same frontward and backwards and upside down.
I’ve tried following your Amazon links, because i love your chair, and they don’t take me anywhere. Just saying.
Thanks for the heads up about the Amazon link. I will try to fix that later today when I have more time and signal. Have you down for #8888.
I don’t know what’s wrong with the Amazon links. They work for me. The chair is cool. And I thank you for trying to make a purchase through my link.
The link you have to your camera lens at Amazon works but the “Think about shopping at Amazon from HERE” does nothing. There is no HERE here.
Thanks Ed. I removed that one.
Wish I was at Tsitsikamma National Park now, love that place. even got to see two photos of it today 🙂 Love your 1 year old birthday photo. Have a great weekend 7007 for next week 🙂 Diane
Funny, Joan and I were at Tsitsikamma one year ago today. I love that place. Have you down for #7007.
just getting clothed for my short stint at the comm ctr. Had a ball watching all the “happy bday” lines rolling in – –
Didn’t know I even KNEW that many folks = =
Celebrated with a hamburger bun with my meat, and a pile of FFries. Photos pull me back to the desert.
Now it’s back to Adkins – – not a problem.
Love you – B
Doing Fridays now too huh. Birthdays are a time for celebration. Glad you are enjoying the desert shots. See you in a week or two.
how about 6789:) I like the large canyon with little pony trees or shrubs at the base of the dark canyon hallway:)
The slot canyons in southern Utah are very cool, intrinsically and temperature wise. Have you down for #6789.
Love my slot canyon, the beautiful waters of Tsitsikamma National Park and cute little you trying to make some sense of what’s going on. I really need to scan all my old pictures before they disappear or becoming moldy from storage. Put me down for 8072 for next week.
Thanks Sherry. You really should scan those photos. So glad I did or they would have been in the burned up shed. Have you down for #8072.
I really like them all it’s hard to pick a favorite, but I’ll choose the flowering yucca. My pick is 1014, my birthday! I don’t categorize my photos by number, just date and location, so haven’t anything to contribute.
The flowering yuccas are nice but there location is even better. Have you down for #1014. I too have my photos filed by date and labeled with location but keep the camera number attached. That’s OK, thanks for joining in.
Buckskin Gulch is such a great name for a place.
Nice desert photos this week. Put me down for #5305, please.
I highly recommend hiking Buckskin Gulch. Have you down for #5305.
Love that pelican shot and the cute birthday girl! Put me down for 333 this week.
Thanks Elaine. Have you down for #333.
Love my picture, because I love finding whimsical things when we travel… And Am always glad to know I’m not the only one who takes this kind of picture. Maybe I should always let you choose.
You are only four years older than my oldest child! I often wonder how my children caught up with me in age as I no longer feel older than they are..
But so you won’t have to choose , I’ll take 5000. No reason I just like the sound of it, as I’m sure I’ll like the looks of the picture.
Whimsy is fun. I had to quit counting years when I started to catch up to my Mother and continue counting as my kids caught up to me. Have you down for #5000.
Hello, Have you ever done a readers photo Friday of pics we take? We had storm in San San Francisco yesterday, San Jose even got a dusting of snow. I have 4 pics that just came out gorgeous, three with lightening. It’s so hard to get lightening in shots. Love to share them with you. And, I didn’t even have time for my Pentax K3 or others. I caught these on my Note 4.
If you have a blog, feel free to link in with Foto Friday Fun with the appropriate photo index number. I tried posting pics from others but it’s a hassle. Hard to believe snow in San Jose. Yes it is difficult to get shots of lightening. I’ve only been lucky once, otherwise I take video.
