Last month, I spent a few days in Phoenix for work. I had a few hours to kill one afternoon, so I paid a visit to the Desert Botanical Garden. Everyone said “oh, it’s hot there, but it’s dry heat, so it’s not so bad.” Not true. 110 degrees is hot, regardless of humidity levels. I only stayed for an hour or two at the gardens, but saw a huge variety of cacti and some beautiful big skies.
This guy was my favorite – Old Man Cactus, all covered in soft white fuzz.
