What a fun post and what great pictures! It is so interesting how these magnificant cactus start life protected by some other plant!
Cute Cacti pics!
I've been kissed by a couple. ;)
Great topic for CM. It is so surprising to see these all together. Called a group hug!
HCM!!
You always have something fresh and different...What a cool take on the day! You are such a keen observer of nature! LOVE these...:)
HCM!
I think that is the coolest series of photos I have ever seen, I love them all... and your delightful sense of humor :D
I feel like I got a hug today. What a unique look at cacti. HCM.
How funny! I've hug a few of my cactus by accident:(
Wow - those cacti are beautiful...would you mind if I drew or painted from your pictures for Cactus Monday? I have 3 little cacti in a pot - in about 3 weeks I will run out of ways to sketch/paint them. Unless I turn to abstract. Thanks for stopping by my blog-it's fun to meet the other cactuteers!
That last one really is a "goup hug"! LOL. Cool pics for sure!!! Happy CM!!!
Hi PAK ART, Sure, everyone is welcome to use any of my pictures from my blogs. :)
I love it, I don't think I would have see that.
The USMC post reminds me of the BLM firefighters I see double-timing it up our trail in full turn-out gear, for conditioning. I don't know how they do it, youth maybe?
Diane AZ: Fabulous,unique, one in a million series of cactii shots. Really wonderful!

Diane, I much prefer to experience Cactus hugs vicariously through other plants as you've so expertly detailed. Real Cactus hugs have been less than pleasant and I'm almost certain you have your own stories to confirm these apprehensions.
Hello diane,
Happy weekends in advance!
What a great collection of photos! I love it and am glad that something can hug cactus :)
So cute! What a great idea!
