January, 2002 We might live in the desert, but that doesn't mean it can't get cold now and again. Occassionally it can even snow. After one cold night last winter we got up early in the morning and drove up to the foothills hoping to catch the elusive picture of a saguaro with snow on it. Sort of successful... it looked more like ice. But white, cold, close enough to snow until next season.Barril cactus with snow on it, in Tucson!Prickly Pear cactus with snow on it, in Tucson!Saguaro cactus with snow on it, in Tucson!
