The organ is playing a sad, sad song..

Somebody stole a ton of the Organ Pipe Cactus before we moved in. We noticed some laying on the driveway a few weeks ago and wondered what had hap'd... then our neighbor told us that she saw a truck there in the middle of the night and that they are worth money. If you cut the cactus and let it sit for 2 weeks you can re-plant them and they will root. She said they just sold some for $500.. We rescued two so far and have about 6 more to pick up off the ground and re-plant


I think my roomate counted over 25 missing.


Need to rescue that one on the ground still
poor thing...
ouch

they pushed some off the driveway ..wtf. That's another pic of our backyard ;o)
two happy rescued cacti

I love driving down the driveway.. it's a fun little hill.

This is crazy! Too bad the neighbor lady didn't have some rock salt shells for those lovely people.
