December 26, 2008 Friday

This one is a Saguaros cactus.



Friday we went to the Organ Pipe Cactus National Park

What an amazing place. Much like the national parks in Washington, Wyoming and Montana but instead of lodge pole pines, there's millions of these Saguaro and organ pipe cactus. We took a road that was around 20 miles around a one-way loop. Once you got into it, there was no turning back. It was mostly gravel so the going was slow but that was ok with us. The scenery was amazing.

Those were all saguaro cactus....can't see them very good but they're there. The one next to me is the oragan pipe cactus outside the visitor center.


Then just 7 miles south of the park was the Mexico border. We had to go see it and they all look alike.
