Oracle Arizona and A Detour to Visit Biosphere 2

I remember this being in the news but I never really knew where it was so coming across it  was by pure accident. 

It's a pretty impressive place and the tour was interesting, particularly the Water and Climate Change Project.

Work of Sculpture by Steven Derps with Santa Catalina mountains in the background and a real pretty view too.  Got to see a baby rattlesnake on the pathway, and was REAL glad the maintenance crew picked it up and put it in a bucket. Baby animals are cute, but I can't say the same for baby rattlers.
