Chocolate smelling flowers by the road


Delicate desert flowers

Cacti by the road



Those little prickly things are the seeds of a local grass. The long 'legs' of the seeds allow the wind to carry them far - the other day we saw a real 'herd' of those little grass hedgehogs in front of the Wallmart in town. This is one very smart plant ~
