California Poppies








On Monday, I went to town to run some errands and take some pictures of the surrounding countryside. It's been a while since I posted photos of nature there, so different from ours in the canyon, yet only about 15 miles away. Our canyon is only about 10 miles and 1,000 feet above the Mojave Desert and nature here reflects that proximity, while in town and to the west and south, nature is more typical California countryside with mature oaks, green grass, apple orchards, and this time of year, lilac bushes and California poppies in full bloom. 
I had a wonderful afternoon and got more pictures for later posts.
