Gnomes in a tree

Sometimes the best decision I can make all day is to allow Nellie to determine the walk we take around the neighborhood. This evening she outdid herself. We stumbled upon the most amazing flowering cacti, a charming fairy garden of gnomes in the crook of a tree, and a trumpet vine bursting with blossoms. Considering I spent the day getting filthy working on a brick border along my three mile hedge (it's not really 3 miles -- just feels that way), it was refreshing to see vibrant color so powerfully on display.

Click on the picture so you can see the gnomes -- and check out the two on the upper right:

The cactus with a lavender hue is really stunning and the barrel cactus in bloom was a first for me. Awesome.


And last, but definitely not least, the trumpet vine.

And thus endeth a perfect day.
