Last Saturday we went to the Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve State Natural Reserve. It was REALLY windy. I'd like to live there, I fancy, but that wind just might be a bit much.
There were not quite the zillions of poppy that there were last time, but then that was praised as the best year ever. Still, mighty purty!
We stopped at the visitor's center and learned some interesting stuff. And used the facilities.
We headed for home via San Francisquito Canyon. We stopped by the power plant for some geocaches, and because it's cool.
Did I mention the geocaches? We found eight out of nine caches on the trip.
I SO want to climb this scary trail up the hill beside the power plant!
On the way home I saw a mispelled freeway sign, and a car that might belong to a relation.
Yesterday, I went geocaching in Santee, but I've complained about THAT elsewhere.
Today, I had a fabulous trip around the Sweetwater Lake County Park. I saw jackrabbits, a road runner, horses, and three lizards. But no snakes, I am happy to report!
Piles and piles of flowers growing, thanks to the recent rains, and Spring!
Bridge One:
Bridge Two: Not all that safe for people, either!
Bridge Three: Breakaway! What ever will they think of next?
I have lost my knot! I had a white knot, just like that red one! If you see a knot on the loose somewhere, let me know! Oh, yeah, that's Sweetwater Reservoir back there.
As usual, more and sometimes BIGGER images on the zooomr page, just click an image to get there. Or HERE!

Looks like you had a nice adventure. Surprised no pics of the animals, though. Nice to see pics of the "kids".
