Desert Destinations

Hi folks,
Our friends Tom & Joyce showed us the shopping spots in town today. Actually we went into Mesa to Walmart, Harbor Freight tools, Tractor Supply Co. and Camping World. We came back with a truck full of supplies, groceries and such..
Afterward we made our first trip out into the desert on the SxS...
While we only went about 15 miles or so, we had a blast.  Lots of cactus.  Rocks with Petroglyphs and GOBS of sunshine and beautiful scenery!
Randy's allergies are still kicking his tail...  It will probably take some time to get acclimated..
This is one of the bazillions of Saguaro cactus in the area.  This one is a good 35' tall or taller.  I'm told that they don't start growing their "arms" until they reach about 75 years of age. Many out here are multiple hundreds of years old...
