I am very careful to check my pool float before I sit in it. Some people think that walking on water is a miracle, but in my case, it was a necessity born of sheer fright when I found that snake between my thigh and the side of the float. My feet never touched the bottom of the pool!Judiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02778815502961000469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-57721152330112641752012-06-07T19:29:09.231-07:002012-06-07T19:29:09.231-07:00you wouldn't think, looking at a cactus, that ...you wouldn't think, looking at a cactus, that there would be a lot of color to it... until it flowers!

Your blog post made me a bit "homesick" for Tucson... I have been there a couple of times in the 1990s and have a lot of great memories of my time there. I really like all the different cacti there and took many pictures back then. Your post was such a treat -- one of my favorite "C" posts for sure! <br /><br />Greetings from Germany,<br />BirgitBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871374325669609265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464278377527384610.post-89551588984801357732012-06-07T09:35:37.954-07:002012-06-07T09:35:37.954-07:00My dear Judie,

But it's my only desert-war story so far (I'm a fan of sandals)while out for a stroll in my grandfather's wild wilderness in Florence. A Mr. Horrible Ant took a bite out of my poor foot one day, (while I was holding my little boy) and trying not to drop him (those ants can be really MEAN!) I held him tightly but my foot landed in one of those TOOTHPICK sharp-cactus (the same ant-biten-foot) and I'm sure everyone heard my scream! Ha!
