Beautiful Cactus Blooms



I've been taking pictures of blooming cactus on our rides out in the desert.   We started gold prospecting on some claims around Quartzsite.  It was fun because we could take the 4wheeler right out from the campground and go out and dig.   Of course the rain found us again.  Now we are done trying to look for gold in the area because we need dry ground.  All the rain this winter and spring is bad for us but good for the cactus. 

We saw the sad news coming out of Yuma.  The city has declared a state of emergency because the migrants coming across the border are overloading the services available.  All the charity organizations that help the migrants are being overwhelmed.  The border authorities catch them but then have no where to hold them so they are just dumping them in town.   The federal government really needs to fix the immigration problem.
