Yes it is definitely peak wildflower time. We, including Dave and Gayle, headed out on our "La Bamba Tours" session to the Antelope Valley Reserve for a walk in the California Poppies. We were not disappointed. We beat the early rush by beginning our trip at 8am on Saturday. Lots of photos in the sea of orange. No photo was bad, just some better than others. After the hour hike we headed westward to the Ripley State Desert Park to walk among the cactus and flowers. Again, many fine photos here. Once again, we got back into the car to head further west into the Gorman area off Highway 138 and Gorman Road. We were totally surprised to see the wonderful hills blanketed with lots of yellow flowers. So many views but we were very hungry due to our hiking adventures. Off to Gorman to have a fine lunch at the Ranch House. Then we headed to Camping World in Santa Clarita for a very short shopping trip. Wow, did we cover alot of ground. But it was fun had by all.
