RE: G-dog's weekend-engagement week ten: Topic post [110 hive in the prize pool]

Lol, thank goodness for the zoom function!

Well, this clearly deserves to be in a David Attenborough documentary about desert enormity. I can hear him now, explaining how those two mountain ranges ground themselves into small rocks and sand and how one feels minuscule in comparison...And along in the background is Tom and Sam walking by, just minding their own business, being minuscule.

I like the juxtaposition between the cactus and yourself, almost cactus-like in form as well.

Masterful drawing. Expect the Louvre to call...They'll be wanting to hang this one for sure.

I can see you're sun-smart which is good...No point risking skin cancer huh?

It's a really good place to think about your importance in the overall scope of things :)

I'm not very good with perspective. The Saguaro are generally about 10 meters tall and weigh over a ton. There is a true story of a dickhead teenager in Phoenix who decided that a Saguaro had to die so he blasted the base with a shotgun until it fell on him. They found him a day later squashed. They are vindictive, it seems.

Here is young (no arms) saguaro that has been badly damaged by bullets.

For scale, here is a selfie (one of maybe 4 I've taken) right in front of it.

I'm 6 feet 4 inches. Damn near 2 meters.

Humans are assholes huh? (The cactus-shooter). I saw a doco about these things. Pretty cool. I didn't realise they were that big until I saw the show. You know, I always pity people who say they wouldn't know what to do with vast amounts of money...So much to know in this world, so many places to go. What sucks is I have the desire, but not the money to go do it! ☹️

I know, huh? I'd be the worlds most exclusive motorcycle tester. When the damn thing needed an oil change I'd trade it for the next one! I'd probably give Harley Davidson another try at that rate. Maybe.

Lol...Maybe. 😂
