Hi tbirdjoey, Welcome to All Things Plants!
My first thought was the photo was of a cactus of some sort but the picture won't enlarge so it's difficult to get a good view. I agree with Planto, if you can upload a photo of the entire plant it might be much easier to identify.
hmm ... when googling I found the photo of the plant in question but no ID:
