Nice Day

From LDR-A arroyo

Dr. K, Willow and I had a nice hike this morning, following our regular route from start to finish.  We didn't see any other nature lovers out there today.  As far as precipitation goes our area is over 5 inches above normal; the "lush" desert shows signs of its appreciation:  flowers are still in bloom everywhere.

This & next:  Desert Globemallow
