Sammie's visit to Los Angeles

Had a fun visit with one of my students from Indianapolis who was visiting California.  So fun to connect in person after all of our Skype sessions.

Happy Easter!

The glory of nature abounds.  Spring has sprung!

Arroyo Siquit Trail = Spring Heaven

California is in all its glory - Happy Spring!

More birthday celebrating in Joshua Tree

This party is never going to end....three weeks in and we're still celebrating Vince's birthday.  This time in Joshua Tree.

The infamous Joshua Tree in bloom:

You find the strangest things in the desert:

 Night time photography fun, shooting the desert sky and stars:

Perfect weather for a day in the park.  We hiked all day on several trails.  Loved it all!

The desert was especially beautiful during this visit.  Lots of greenery and flowers blooming everywhere:

These pix were taken from the car on my phone.   You can see the yellow flowers as far as the eye can see.

Matt's Special Friend

I was honored to be Matt's "Special Friend" at school today.  We drew pictures and wrote a little book about our friendship.  It was all about food, hiking, animals and trains :)  We always have a fun time together.
