Goofing up and catching up

If you look at some of my earlier posts you will notice that the photos are missing. While cleaning up some old files I mistakenly deleted the folder that held those pictures. That's water under the bridge, but I plan to do more frequent post to make up for lost photos. Here is the first with an assortment of photos from last year. ''

Viewer Discretion Advised

I made one last trip to Table Mountain for this season. This first picture is the same shot that I posted from  the last trip but has improved significantly.



Before I forget, if you don’t like snakes, you better not scroll down to the last picture.
It’s hasn’t been the best year for spring flowers. There is almost no Lupine , but the Poppies are prolific and beautiful this year.



So, if you like Poppies, here you go.



And for some reason Poppies like to grow right out of the rocks.



They don’t seem to grow out in the green pastures, but in the rocks…



This rock mound is just covered with Poppies. Even more than what you see here.



The above photo is the top side of the same mound of rocks.



OK, this is not Poppies and neither is the next photo and remember if you don’t like snakes stop here.



Yep, those are rattle snakes checking me out!
