bye bye Douglas!

Dodged a bullet: Hurricane Douglas turned north and mostly missed us! So glad!  Answered prayer.

 Bougainvillea and hibiscus
 Pretty cornflower blue








Looks like a tired ballroom dress


Flowers near the entrance to our complex  



So many flowers in jail



These are fleshy mysteries. They have an obnoxious guard dog, too.

Succulents with one yellow flower.


Awesome cloud

I do love seeing roses.
