Ely, NV - Ward Charcoal Ovens - Inside, looking upThese ovens offer a strange view when standing inside. Just the small door, and a chimney hole in the top. They filled them up with dry mesquite, lit a fire and closed the door, and waited to harvest the resulting charcoal.Jul 25, 2020

Top-Down View of a Small Barrel-Type CactusNear Saguarita, AZ, on one of our many day trips, we sought out Saguaro Cactus to photograph. We did not find a great many, but we were not bored! This was a small barrel-type cactus about 18 inches tall, and probably about 12-15 inches across, depending on whether you count the spines or not.Jul 03, 2020

Really Big Barrel CactusNear Saguarita, AZ, on one of our many day trips, we got lucky and found this near the road. Lucky, because it was behind a barbed wire fence that looked as nasty as the spines on this cactus.Jul 02, 2020
