And Even More Cacti Flowers

I think both of these cacti are in the hedgehog family of cacti -- This was the only bloom on this very large and sprawling cactus, but I would imagine that in a few days there may be more --

From the shape of the spines, I think this is probably a younger version of the same type of cacti --

But in contrast to that first big one, this one is loaded with buds --

It was VERY hot and muggy last night and it got into the high 90s again today. But the wind came up in the late afternoon and it cooled down nicely. It's 80 degrees outside now (after sunset) and lovely. I went for a l-o-n-g walk with a nice breeze right as the sun started going down. The wind has quieted down and the clouds that were around this afternoon are long gone.
