Yesterday, after bragging about my grandkids, I thought about you and took a walk with my camera. All of the pictures are in my back yard I own 8 acres and there is a small forest of Saguaro Cactus. To those of you who are not familier with my desert, that cactus is pronounced Sa-wha-ro. If you can work a little clearing of the throat sound in the "wha" part, you have it. One of the first pictures is a baby Sahuaro. One of the last pictures is a dead Sahuaro. Next to the baby is a picture I took in a wash (dry riverbed when there is no rain) of a growth that looks a bit like Shamrocks. I think I need to take another early morning walk before the heat destroys everything.

I wake up each morning with many thing to accomplish. I have a favorite saying that I have coined: THE DAY IS NOT NEARLY LONG ENOUGH TO ACCOMPLISH ALL I WANT TO DO AND WAY TOO LONG FOR THE BODY.
