Sunday Feb, 13

These Saguaro Cactus are the coolest things ever.  We took this pic just so you could see how huge they are.  They like to grow on the southern slopes so there are literally forests of them growing together with all their arms going crazy directions.  They say they will grow an arm to help balance the gigantic and extremely heavy main trunk.
Riding out yesterday with Vicky

Our good friend Vicky!

this is the truck of the above cactus

looking pretty pleased to be here for sure!  When we were riding back yesterday we saw a bobcat just sitting under a tree watching us ride by.  It stayed there the whole time while we stopped and gawked at it. Cool.  We have also seen some roadrunners.  They are a little disappointing in person because they are so small, one expects them to be at least as large as a coyote, right? NOT.

Yesterday Terry got up and went walking with our friend Tom, they have been walking every day at 7am except on Sunday's when they go eat breakfast at the man restaurant. Don't ask.  He took MJ over to their yard and let her loose and he said she ran around like the loose end of a hose turned on full blast.  The dogs are doing great.  Lady and The Tramp are doing good too, they are shedding like crazy.  They are getting really cactus savvy on the trails, wiggling around them to avoid getting poked.  They also don't try to eat anything on the ground anymore.  Hope winter is treating all of you well!
