Always follow the buddy system
Don't be a bloomin idiot!

Beware of strange things lurking in the bushes!

"Which way do we go?"
"Are you sure it's not this way?"
"Where am I?" Caught over a barrel.
Too tired? Let someone carry you.
If you get lost, don't lose your head!

Don't stay in the desert too long or you'll start looking like this.

Orange you glad that you went on this hike?
My hubby and I have went on a few hikes while vacationing in the Arizona Desert. One morning as we hiked the Starr Pass Trail I noticed that the cactus seemed to be talking to us. I thought that I would share the interpretations that we received. Hope you get a chuckle or two.

This was so funny! I could actually here the cacti talking to you. (and laughing behind your backs) Nice of dad to play along! Great pictures!
Your dad is a good sport! He even came up with some of the ideas. Cacti, Facti was his choice for the title.
Yes, I got a chuckle of all the different cactus and when you stand the shoot out was a HI-LITE, I was thinking that's not what Julie said this morning, & then I finished reading.
