Prickly pear cactus trip

We had a trip out past Valley Center for our most recent trip.  Salsa and salad was prepared from harvested foods, including cactus, and given to students with a side of tortilla chips.  We learned that only the new shoes should be eaten.  Unfortunately the facility lighting was poor, so the best photos came from portraits and plants photographed outside, rather than the food inside.  There was a really unusual flowering plant there, which made for a great photo!
