Curacao Barrel Cactus

Good morning from sickville!  I am feeling better today but now have some sores on my feet keeping me from doing much walking, if it isn’t one thing it’s always another!  Aimee and I both went into the doctors office this morning, I had to make an appointment with a foot specialist and Aimee had to do a yearly physical thing.

Your photo this morning is for our good friend Joe in Rapid City who has asked me for this photo more times than I can count??  It’s funny when you live around certain things like these little barrel cacti that you just get used to seeing them and never really take time to shoot them??  These were found high above the water at Saint Joris and was very difficult to get to, probably one of the reasons my feet look like they do.  As you can see these mega sharp cacti grow anywhere and they especially love these pitted limestone outcrops.

Hope your all doing well, feels like I have been at home for a whole year??  See you tomorrow, Barry
