Beautiful. Hopeful. Is that a recent picture?
From my reading I thought that the Saguaro cactus were in decline/serious trouble?

Thank you! Yes, from yesterday. I haven't heard that, I'll have to do some investigating! Certainly didn't look like any problems to me. I saw thousands of healthy ones yesterday!

Really so neat! These always amaze me! Maybe you interrupted a concert?

Thank you again, Barb! When I hear "concert" I think Pink Floyd. But yeah, that could have been what was happening! Whatever it was, it was good for the soul!!

I no longer have a sense of smell. But yes, that's a big and poignant part of the desert experience! Thanks for the reminder.

I was beginning to think I was the only one to remember that old cowboy song.

Hey Chief, can that steel trap remember the name of that group that recorded "Cool Water"? It's been buzzing though my brain since I found this thread. I'd even bet good money that the label on the record was dark blue, maybe Capitol Records. Not in my collection these days. Maybe buried in my sister's basement. But danged if I can remember the artist. Can you?

Really!

Seemed to me I could remember playing that song on the 45 record player when we lived on the farm. We moved from there in June of '56 when I was five. Unless I find that old record I'll have to go with that.

Thanx for the trip down memory lane.
