My favorite exercise area is the New River Trail. It can be walking, running, or riding my Schwinn Voyageur bicycle. I drive or ride to Mercer's Restaurant parking lot. There is a large saguaro cactus nearby. It takes 75 years for a saguaro to grow arms, so this saguaro had to be several hundred years old. I took several pictures with it and it was a welcome Friend. Because of the extreme Phoenix heat, a lot of saguaros in my neighborhood have died; saguaros thrive in higher elevations, and the Phoenix Valley floor has started to become unfavorable for saguaro to survive. Over the past year, I noticed the saguaro leg did not look well. As I finished my RiverRide, I found the cactus fell over. Unfortunately, I never gave it a nickname. Rest well, dear Friend.
