... I thought that I'd caught this cactus in a rare bloom: after all, we're not normally around in LA at this time of the year, and I'm seeing all kinds of flowers (both in the neighborhood, and even in our own back yard) that are new to me. But of course I looked up ... and some tree above it - looks like a Californian Pepper - was dropping these strands of berries onto the big lethally spiny leaves of the blue agave. I mean - I knew it didn't bloom like this. But it was an instant of my over-active imagination hoping for something unusual amid the familiar.
