I loved how these saguaro cacti seemed to be in a multi-grade setting, with their instructor animatedly sharing important information.

Aren't they fabulous?! Did you know that Arizona is the only state in the US that they grow in? If you see one in a photo, it has to be Southern Arizona! Oh Sabino! "Back in the day", we just drove in and picnicked by the river! LOTS of good memories with my friends! I found myself watching today for your latest post! (Also talked to Pam this morning and told her about your stay there. She wanted to know "what was pretty about the desert?" Maybe people think of The Sahara! I told her to start looking at your pictures! (Old Main at the U of A...a view from the top of "A" Mountain... I'd love to dash over and be a tour guide! Enjoy your stay!)
@Weezilou I love reading about your memories of being here. I think there is a beauty of the high desert that takes some getting used to. If you’re looking for lush greenery, of course you’d be disappointed, but the beauty is there in the tenacious plants that grow, the beautiful subtle colors, etc.
Wonderful. Is this something you are going to do like going to Beaver Island in summer? That will be wonderful for picture taking having three different environments to shot in. I am envious though I do love my state of Maine. But 365 allows me to enjoy all these places through you wonderful lens.
@joansmor We're testing two things really. First, would we want to be gone from Chicago for essentially 8 months if we spend time here and on the island. Second, if we decide we are okay with that, would we choose Tucson as the spot. So, we'll see!
