Hi Dug,
My best guess is Ricinocarpus pinifolius, otherwise known as Wedding Bush (family Euphorbiaceae), but it's a bit difficult to tell without seeing the whole plant (less flowers, more foliage to help with perspective  ).
Were the flowers scented at all?
I agree with Kinetic - but would be useful to have a clearer view of the foliage - looks right for wedding bush though.
One other useful characteristic is the fruit - should be a 'rounded, lobbed green capsule with a lumpy surface'. Rel Dodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships! -Ansel Adams
