Sometimes life seems hectic and ‘busy’ (that is the least defined word in the english language, but that is a discussion for another day) which makes it hard to slow your mind down enough to notice the little things that are going on around you.

On our way back I noticed that the big cactus in our neighbour’s cactus garden is in bloom, with huge white multi-layered petals…pretty, but you wouldn’t want to lean in too close to try and smell them…and I also noticed that the next house has a large cactus in their yard, which seems an odd place to have a cactus…
