The wildflower season has begun!!!! February 16, 2009, 12:10:18 pm Yahoo Message Number: 99385Woo hoo, after two dry years, the wildflower are back! Its time to pack the LD and hit the road.The recent rains in California, Nevada and Arizona have set off the spring wikdflower bloom. Death Valley and the lower deserts and already starting to bloom. My brother just returned from Arizona and reported that the desert is covered in thick green. He noted that the saguaros were plump with water.We spent the rainy weekend on the Central Coast where spring is popping out all over. To eyes that have not seen much green recently, it was a treat. While it may not be a peak flower year, it is still worth the effort to get out and see them.Wildflower links http://www.desertusa.com/wildflo/ca.html http://www.theodorepayne.org/hotline/hotlinelinks.html http://www.theodorepayne.org/hotline.html http://www.calphoto.com/wflower.htm http://www.visitkern.com/flowers.aspWe only have two seasons in SoCal, the green and brown.Larry Rainy, temporarily green SoCal
