I like this picture, especially on a day when it has stopped snowing but with more on the way. We won't see anything like this until probably May.

Warning -- Trite alert! More d--- flowers! :-)

While scoping out Mission San Jose in Fremont for the NorCal outing (we are going somewhere else), I came across a barn next to a field of wild flowers right in downtown Fremont. It was bordered by flowering trees (not sure what kind: peaches, plums, something). It was pretty, pretty!

So I did an immediate u turn and went back and found a private road. Drove up it and finally found an unfenced field I could skip cross to get closer. (Though I never really got close enough to the barn and windmill, etc.)

Took about eight of these shots, all from slightly different perspectives. So I don't know that this is the BEST one -- they are all about equally good/bad. I realize there are some possible technical criticisms. But they are PRETTY. :-)

Only that night, I started coughing... yup, sick rest of that day, next day, next week. Still have the cough.

Wasn't the smartest thing I have ever done. Sorry to rub it in for those in colder climes, but mid-February is often when California hits early Spring.

Comments are welcome. (But not necessarily on my stupidity.)
