Dead Saguaros

The Stones sang about dead flowers, which are useless. Dead saguaro cactus, on the other hand, are totally useful. Sweetie has been strangely obsessed with dead cactus. It's weird. But I have to say- I get it. Some of the inner structures of the cactus are woody and beautiful. I'll post some more pics, but some have a fishnet stocking look that is undeniably otherworldly.  But these, the saguaro ribs, are like strong pieces of thin hardwood branches. Deceivingly strong for their weight and diameter. The ribs are used for fences. Really interesting plant. Even though Keith, Mick and the boys sang about useless dead flowers, I am still a huge fan. Rock on.
