Well, we had bouts of rain, hail and snow (that wouldn't stick) today in the AV - so not this weekend. We're mid-30s for temp. The extra rain and cool temperatures we've had off and on the past couple of months aren't helping with germination I have to guess because usually we see a good start by now, but it's a smattering through the neighborhoods and on the sides of roads. January 27 I got some road side starting photos heading out to the Poppy Reserve - then we had more bouts of rain and cold spells. But when we get some I'll post a current photo to update. But for now a couple photo of the almost exactly a year ago
Before you get to the Reserve
Coyote country - hide small dogs

Took a quick bike break and was feeding this guy grass from my open hand. Super friendly and couldn’t get enough.

From the top of Mt Hamilton yesterday (10-April).
The farthest visible mountains are the Sierra Nevada, quite far away (about 125 miles). The white stuff is snow. It's very rare to be able to see that far:

04/12/2024 Reserve starting to really bloom but rain expected Saturday afternoon and a bit on Sunday with temp drop - so again, maybe not the weekend to visit for blooms.
