I'll spare you the gory details of the grisly deaths spiders encounter whenever I see them. All I have to say is thank goodness for a chemical concoction called "Raid"! Hurray! I've emptied more than my fair share of cans and I could care less about the copious amounts ozone hole creating, cancer inducing and genetically mutational agents I might be breathing ...............


You sound just like my wife, Beverly, and one of my daughters, Sandy, AG, and express their sentiments and actions precisely. Smiling nodding !!

............... I wonder how old this guy might be. He is honestly about the biggest and tallest Saguaro I've ever seen. Lovey dubby Let me know what you think ................


Hard to say AG -- different growth rates according to location and substrate. But that is an old-timer for sure, probably 150 years old or more. And, Great photos AG !
