@ruthmouch LOL! no ! how about the contrast form Beirut to this?

I have no idea, but I'm going to say Birmingham, because I think it has a nice ring to it... From Beirut to Birmingham... don't you agree? I also don't think it's as dry as it seems based on the very green little weeds growing around the cacti.

@marilyn LOL! It does have a nice ring! You are right about not being dry and I had to pull quite a few weeds to get it even this close!

Do you have Hispanic neighbors? Mine told me I can harvest their cactus for food anytime I want :-)
March 3rd, 2013

@m9f9l I don't! have you done that?
March 3rd, 2013

@m9f9l How do you eat cactus?! aside from the very obvious answer "carefully"!

@swguevin @jayberg @hankinsphoto @lesip @digitalrn @kbalychev @eudora @ruthmouch @marilyn @peterdegraaff @vskolnik @m9f9l Thanks for playing everyone! It is the decor in front of a Mexican restaurant in my town! I have been there a few time but never with my camera! I happened to have it this day and after carefully weeding around the skull and getting a few stickers in my hand I crouched down in front of it (just a little self consciously) snapped a shot or two!

m9f9l
Yes, carefully!LOL http://www.wikihow.com/Eat-Prickly-Pear-Cactus And I think a Mexican restaurant counts as Hispanic neighbors! So I win!! :-)

@m9f9l LOL! Hispanic yes, neighbors no! Half a win at best! ;~}

@tara11 it is a little strange to see inn my town but DOES give the restaurant an air of authenticity. Thanks, Tara!
