It's warm again

We got out yesterday to see if the flowers were still blooming after the cold and windy weekend. Ken decided to drive up to the end of Idaho road to see the view from there. Here it is. There's beautiful views everywhere here in AJ. We walked up the trail there for bit but decided to go to Bulldog trail where the poppies are instead. At Bulldog the poppies were still blooming a little worn but still pretty. We found 4 new flowers to take photos of too. They are tiny things so Ken gets the photo and he got them in detail too with all their little fuzzies. Too bad you don't get to enjoy his photos!!

We have only 5 days left here and we have had so much fun hiking and photographing the flowers this year I hate to leave. The cactus ought to be beautiful too when they bloom later in April. We checked out a few other parks yesterday for next year and so far this park seems to fit us well it's a little high but it is clean and roomy and we really don't use the amenities except for hiking and golf.

I see Ken turned on our heating system last night instead of reling on our electric heater. He got the electric bill Mon. and thought it a little high, they charge $20 every mo to deliver the electric to you the total bill was $65.

Awake, thou wintry earth

Fling off they sadness!

Fair vernal flowers; laugh forth

Your ancient gladness.
