On Sunday afternoon the kids were at home with Grandpa and Grandma and Nathan caught a ride home with Gene and Linz, so I hopped in the car and went to explore some of the local wildflowers. The California poppies were going crazy. It looked like the hills were on fire, but in a fluorescent orange construction color kinda way. I still had on my dress and flip flops, not intending to explore past the side of the road, but the beautiful day got in the way of my plans on my last stop. I hiked as far as I could until it got too steep for the meager leather straps on my feet to handle.

Amazing flowers! Glad you got some quiet time in with nature without any kids. Next time you can take some better hiking shoes and make a day of it : )
Wow!!! Those wildflowers are amazing!! Gratuitous hemi shot=awesome. (Kiki would say in her best napoleon dynamite voice, "that's a pretty sweet ride.")

Wow! Amazing! And the car shot, haha, that was our dream car until we had too many kids and realized that it wouldn't haul a huge hydraulic dump trailer so well. Ahhh...
