Cactus Monday - Cactus Jack Leaving

It is time to leave Arizona and head back to Wisconsin.....today at 5am!
Cactus Jack loves to feel the wind on his face as we fly down the highway.


I had to leave this photo image with you also since I can't paint all those light-colored spines.  I found this nest in the cactus during one of my walks and I was amazed how tucked in it is and was so easy to miss.  I wonder what brave bird would nest in there.

Mr Linky is here and will be here every Monday even though I am in Wisconsin so please remember to visit.
