Today while on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation we saw the biggest cactus plant or patch we have ever seen. There are many many cactus plants but this huge gorgeous blooming cactus just had to have it's picture taken. When I was a child in ND, I remember having a cactus plant like this in our yard (not this huge though) My mother showed us how to very carefully pick the old dried up blossom out of the plant. It was a lot of fun for me and my older brother. We were so very careful but it seemed we always wound up with a few painful stickers in our fingers.
