California Poppy!
With an endless vista like this in front of you, that only thing you could do is drift. For miles.
And miles.
I wanted to head here, Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve, 60 miles North of LA, yesterday. But, I woke up late and my day turned out to be altogether different yesterday. I woke up late today too, but, the by next week the poppies will die, so I made a dash as soon as I got up. Needless to say, it was worth it. What a dramatic change in scenery from yesterday!
With golden-orange poppies in view:
On my way back, with my talent for straying into places entitled for couples and families where I am strictly unwelcome, I got into the Poppy Festival. Got in, promptly got out, not before donating 8 dollars for the welfare of the inhabitants of the city of Lancaster.
