The High Life


It's always interesting to visit Arizona's High Country. I never tire of looking at the saguaro cactus, arms lifted to the sky, as if to say, "Here I am." They only have a certain area where they thrive and when the elevation becomes too high, they don't grow. Saguaros are so dense on some hills that they are referred to as forests. I've never been fortunate enough to be there when they flower, but can you imagine the awesome sight of thousands of saguaros decked out for spring?
