Spikey Things

 
Just an interesting set of things with the same texture from my walk with Maggie today. The field was wet (hooray- it rained most of the morning!), so we walked down through the cemetery.

We have brown and blue.

I'm sure you can guess the first one. It's a tree stump.

The second is one of the few garden flowers that's looking decent in my yard this year. It's called a Globe Thistle. I love the balls. They only look sharp- when you touch them, they are soft.

Do I get extra points for correctly identifying both? I sure hope so . . .
