Goodnight Cactus
Well, for the past two days I have been out of reach of WiFi as I've explored Monument Valley and Bridges National Monument. Absolutely gorgeous scenery. This photo does not come from either place. It's just a random spot in the desert east of Phoenix where I stopped to take some photos. Like most everyone, I'd imagine, the Saguaro has become my favorite cactus. I didn't spend as much time amongst them as in my previous two forays to Arizona . . . and I rather missed them. I was on my way to the Petrified Forest National Park here and stopped to say my farewells and take some photos as I knew I would soon be in environments not so conducive to their flourishing--or even living.
I wanted to upload this yesterday but was stymied in those efforts. Then this evening, I could not get my computer to start. I feared I would have to wait until my return home before I could attend to getting my computer fixed--and who knew how long it would be until it was up and running. I thought it might be two weeks before I could add any further photos or respond to my flickr mail. But I kept pushing the power button off and on for a few hours and eureka! I'm back in business--for now.
