A winter of rain brought an amazing and long awaited Superbloom to California. One of the amazing places to experience this was right in our own backyard. The Cuyama Valley, adjacent to the renown Carrizo Plain, was a glory of colors and flowers from the end of March through May. Please enjoy the photos below to capture a sense of the joy and beauty.
Winter rains filled the creeks 
and brought flowers to the hillsides. 
Shooting star was one of the first to appear. 
The hills were alive with yellow woolly sunflowers and gold fields. 
Fields of tidy tips appeared.

As we gather to feast 
and enjoy 
with the multi-generation cycle of life. 
More and more flowers bloomed away.

Chalk mountain became a painter’s pallette. 
We say farewell to spring 
with the lingering 
of beautiful memories.
