Your campground and its surroundings sounds wonderful!
Me, I have lived for the past 27 years in central Connecticut in a beautiful old historical town in a beautiful neighborhood with lots of trees and a miles long walking path right outside my door I use every day for my walk. Spring is coming on strong with shoots and flowers coming up everywhere.
One of the best things about where I live is that it's halfway between NYC, where most of my family lives, and Boston, where I lived for 27 years before where I am now. We spend a lot of time both places. Plus we're within an hour of most of our 10 (!) grandchildren.
If I had the $, I would happily live in New York, but it costs $5 to sneeze there.

The drinking isn't as much fun for me either.
But it sounds like you had a blast! And glad you didn't drown- that wouldn't have been fun.

I don't know about cacti, but I'm considering starting an herb/pepper garden...
You have to be careful with this particular pepper though... If you touch it too much, you'll go blind.

Please don't expose them to too much moisture! I learned that the hard way. They became engorged and one even exploded. :(

I think you need to give some extra attention to the two smaller growths - I've heard it will make the bigger one grow even larger.

Also, remember to keep an eye on that particular type throughout the autumn and winter. They tend to shrivel up in the cold.
Each one has its own preferences for sunlight and moisture. You have to select carefully or they might not last in a harsh environment.

Well I'm no expert, but I have heard that if exposed to too much daylight they can become very hard so maybe not ideal to plant in your garden in the desert?
