The spathe from the skunk cabbage:
Barnacles growing on boulders of volcanic rock on the beach:
An unidentified flower, no less beautiful for going unnamed:

Great pictures, Sue! I especially like the one of bursting cones.
Thanks Vivien! I like pictures of things that are transitory.
Wow, Sue - two great vacations back to back! I love all of the fog pictures.
Thanks, Diane. There were two opportunities to travel that came along that were just too good to turn down. It's rapidly becoming a lifestyle that would be all to easy to become accustomed to :)
Sue, That unidentified pink flower looks mighty like what we call a prairie rose in Nebraska. Did it have thorns?

Thanks Brenda, I think you are correct, it is in the rose family. Terry Grant thought so too.
