arrow Flower power

In my Sunday Spotlight column I take time not only to smell the flowers, but to wax philosophic about them, too. If you've never taken the time to actively seek out the explosion of spring color that takes place on the world-famous Fresno County Blossom Trail and the Wildflower Trail, I highly encourage you to do so. You'll wonder why it took you so long. Here's a pic I took from a scene I describe in my column:

We live in a gorgeous place. It's too bad some people like to refer to it as the "armpit" of California.

Heather, I agree! Yes, folks, this is your backyard. Enjoy it!

Donald, that first shot is so gorgeous - I love seeing it at the top of Beehive. So much so that I don't want to ruin it by posting something myself.

Heather, you should post away. Flowers don't last long anyway. Thomas Moore wrote, "This world is all a fleeting show." Just like Ryan Seacrest's macho-guy routine.

Dazzling, Donald, just dazzling. The landscape photo looks like a painting!
