I used to live in the Sonoran Desert of Arizona and have always been a great admirer of the Saguaro cactus. The Sonoran is the only place Saguaro occur. When viewing some western movies of the past, often fake Saguaros are placed in the background outdoor scenes to “authenticate” a western land scape! Drives me crazy. If producers and directors t want to have Saguaro in the background, they should go to Tucson Mountain Park where many classic westerns have been filmed. The park offers an “authentic” western background that is natural.
Very sad to hear about the temps this past summer affecting them (the cactus) so badly. Just as a footnote: We have no control, for ill or for good, in how the climate of our planet functions. We have very little control over anything, only our reaction to things. “Control” was not one of the many gifts of our creator, there were many gifts, but “control” was not one of them!
Kyle burnt his bridges .. er, boats. Probably quicker to fashion a boat from dollar bills a make a more extravagant way of making money go up in smoke, Cough, cough.

No wonder friends from New Mexico told me about the extraordinary draught they are going through! Hope nature will recover soon.

Another error in the Spanish edition: It says the Viking ship took 22 years.

What a waste of money for Kyle Scheele to build a useless boat. That money could have been used for more practical things.

Kyle for Missouri: learn to play pickle ball, bridge, or chess. Cheaper hobbies.
