The rain has knocked down the dust
and left the air crisp and clear. The annual reappearance of the green and growing
things always make me eager to get back on the trails. Even so not much going
on in the world of flowers just now. The most exciting thing I’ve seen
recently was a chaparral current bush with swelling flower buds – a
prediction that it won’t be long now. As always, if you want to contact me
or submit a flower report my email address is at the at the bottom of this
page. See you on the trails. – ed. |

The rain has knocked down the dust and
left the air crisp and clear. There were a lot of people out enjoying the new
green grass and other growing things. From the peak we could see all the
Channel Islands, even San Clemente 75 miles out to sea. On the other hand we
saw only about ten plants in flower and they were a pretty sad lot. It was
such a beautiful day we really didn’t mind the lack of flowers. – ed. |
