Whirlwind Wildflower Weekend, Part 2
Well, I woke at 3 a.m. with a sore throat and chills and couldn't get back to sleep. Aaargh. I'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired! Anyway, we got a later start than I would have liked but we got to the Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve around 10:30 in the morning and had a very pleasant few hours hiking around and looking at and photographing the wildflowers. Porter wasn't in the best of moods but we muddled through.

Porter was not in a mood to walk so I carried him part of the way up to the summit.
The view from the summit.
Down in the valley (the one you can see in the previous picture). Acton Daisies (yellow), Owl's Clover (purple) and California Poppies (orange).
Porter entertained finally by the footbridge in the valley.
Alice discovered she has a taste for dirt. Yum.
