Saguaro cactus in Phoenix, Arizona

If you are thinking about moving to Phoenix, Arizona, already live here, or planning a visit – The Sunny Saguaro is for YOU.

Sunshine and saguaros are iconic to Phoenix, Arizona. Phoenix averages over 300 days of sunshine. Like sunshine, saguaro cactus are also plentiful.

I named this blog after a saguaro that lives on top of the mountain in front of our house. Every time we visited the sales office of our house as it was being built, I saw this saguaro. It looked like a friend that was welcoming us to our new home.

And so, it is now the namesake for this blog.

I’m so glad you are here!
