I love hedgehogs

As I was walking to the corner to get my mail, I saw this hedgehog cactus beautifully blooming.  When I got home, I walked back with my camera and took this photo.  Honestly, I haven't had to enhance or do anything to the cactus flowers I've posted so far, SOOC.  This one didn't even need a crop. As a result it's huuuge  in large. The flowers weren't open as wide as they would have been earlier in the day but the photo turned out just as I had hoped with the late day sun.

Today was new toilet installation day.  Now if I can only get some toilet paper. It was also fix the clothes dryer day. Then the hedgehog cactus flowers.  I count three silver linings for today.

Four years ago I hosted a Virtual Blipmeet .  Watch for #VirtualBlipmeet2020 info coming to a Challenge page near you!
(Hmmm...maybe that's the 4th silver lining.)
