We coordinated with Aline, Eddy, Cindy and Jenny to visit the Sagauro National Park on the East side of Tucson, Az. The sun was out and skies were clear. It was a perfect day to visit the "Sentinel of the desert" the grand saguaro cactus! We lucked out since it also happened to be Fiesta Day at the park. There were musicians, craftsman, performers, food, and a pinata for the kids.
The Sonoran Desert.
We stopped at the Visitor Center before heading out on the 8 mile drive in the Sonoran Desert. We stopped for a hike along the way with a chance to visit the cactus up close and a picnic at the Javelina Lunch area.
The View takes on the desert.
This cactus is about 150 years old!

Swiss/US Jr. Park Rangers once again!
These young performers were amazing!
Caroline lines up for a hit.
Cindy proved to be the real slugger- later in the newspaper!
Spoils for the participants.
