“But pleasures are like poppies spread,
You seize the flower, it's bloom is shed;
Or, like the snow-fall in the river,
A moment white, then melts forever.”

~Robert Burns

I went in search of meadows with purple flowers among the orange poppies and was rewarded with this ~ a ring of yellow mustards. And a contrasting sky with rain clouds to the south.

Due to the recent winter rains in Southern California, hillsides are bursting with colors of wildflowers. These hills especially are covered with mostly the poppies-California Flower. Soon the hills will turn brown unless we get more rains. Visitors are flocking to these hills by the thousands these past few weeks to witness this amazing phenomenon!

Hope you enjoy!

Farm Treehouse; GLAMPING IN THE WINE COUNTRY! 501c3

Valle De Los Caballos

"Our stay at the farm treehouse was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, the owner personally checked us in, gave us a tour of the property, and even provided his cell phone number in case we needed anything. He welcomed us to enjoy a glass of wine outside and take in the beauty of the last day of 2024. The treehouse was spotless and fully stocked with everything we needed—including all the essentials to cook a meal. It was a perfect getaway, and we’re already planning to return in...
