Thank you for the smiles and kind words, and thanks to @Bonehead and @Dutchlady1 for the acorns.

Here as usual are full size pictures of the plant in the banner... one of the softest, roundest succulents I have.

Love this banner, Baja!

Opalina, what a big fat favorite that was of mine! Sorry though that my zone's winter doesn't allow for its cultivation on my balcony garden. E. agavoides did survive out there so it's got the place of honor in my balcony. Smiling
Great pics of E. Opalina, Baja!
