California Poppies!

Well last weekend Cathy and I went to the California Poppy Reservation. I thought it was some sort of place where we forced poppies to live and they had built a casino...but I was wrong. In the high mountain desert of California, near Lancaster is a large area of the state where the California Poppy is preserved in its natural state. IT IS AWESOME!

It all starts with ONE poppy.....
