After over 3.5 years, Jake and I still have an awesome sex life.  We don’t do it every day, but then again, we were long-distance so much of the first two years that was never the norm for us in any case.  I’d say that we average 3 times a week usually, with the odd week off due to one of us traveling, getting sick, or having a period (okay, only one of us has ever needed a week off for that, and fortunately, it doesn’t appear that I’ve ever dedicated an entire blog posting to one!).

Still, when you’ve been together for awhile, things do get a bit routine if you aren’t taking steps to avoid it.  Sometimes, though, you don’t even need to take the steps – it just resurges on its own.

So, on Sunday the BF and I went to the Desert Botanical Gardens.  Since I posted a couple of heavy-hitters within the last week, I decided to end the week on a lighter note and share with you some of my awesome photos from our visit.

I am not so great with photos of people or artwork (the BF is fantastic at both of these categories) but do take great landscape, plant and animal photographs.  My San Francisco photo album is one of my favorites for this reason, too.

Keep in mind as you marvel over how stunning the desert is that this place is less than 15 minutes from our house and we live in the middle of the city.  What a great day!  As the BF said, we “did something cultural and were still home in time to get drunk and relax before going to bed!”

This is the view when you first walk into the gardens:
