On the Road Again
This was our view driving on Interstate 8 from Yuma to Tucson through the Sonoran Desert National Monument. This is one of the few places in the world that the Saguaro Cactus grows. The more you look at these trees/plants the funnier they look. I couldn't help thinking of Snoopy and his cousin, the doggie who lives in the desert and sits by the cactus. Most of the Saguaro growing on the roadside are 20 feet or more and are abundant on the floor of the desert. Also, though it's hard to see the sides of the road are covered with blue lupine.
We're now located at Rincon Country East Resort where 80% of the sites are occupied by "park models" which are 12 x 50 mobile units that a lot of snowbirds (55+) live in for 5-6 months a year. This is the quietest park we've been in...I feel guilty when the dogs bark!...and everyone is in bed by 10. I'm sure we're the only ones with light burning til midnight.
