So I was checking out art galleries, and saw this entry with the intriguing logo and for some reason I thought it was a high end sperm bank. I ended up walking inside to check it out and it was very stark and modern and very trendy looking – so far so good, I thought.

A nice looking woman looked up from her desk and asked if I needed help. Since at this point I still wasn’t sure what the place was, I asked her. She replied that it was a sound design studio and I thanked her and made my way on, a bit embarrassed, although I am sure she didn’t suspect – or did she?!

So I passed this storefront a few days ago and happened to have my camera with me this time – what the hell are they selling?!

I’ve always seen images of Saguaro cacti but never really knew much about them but during my trip out to Scottsdale, I found out that they only flower for a few weeks each year and was lucky enough to be here during that time. These are the iconic cacti that you see in Southwestern imagery and it’s actually on the newly minted Arizona quarter.
