Today in Flowers

I don't have any photographs at the ready, but I hope to soon. For today's flowers, we'll use the fantastic Firefly Forest site for wildflowers. Gayle and I walked the entire road to nowhere and, in addition to some of our favorite road-walking regulars (Gloria and David, Michael, Ray and Kathy), we saw these great flowers:

• Wild Cucumber (Marah gilensis); 
• Filaree (Erodium cicutarium) introduced from Europe; 
• Fleabane (Erigeron divergens); 
• and one of the Cryptantha species (Popcorn flower, to the kids).

Wherever you walk in the canyon, you are guaranteed to see someone or something nice.
