"Summer afternoon, summer afternoon; to me those have always been the two most beautiful words in the English language." - Henry James Last Friday afternoon was the first time I'd been to Cape Henlopen State Park since mom and I climbed the World War II Observation Tower in early spring. The prickly pear cacti are celebrating the start of summer by blooming with gorgeous yellow flowers! The transparency of the pretty petals give them a similar sheen to tissue paper.
