Spring Wildflowers

I love spring wildflowers.  This is a view of a flowery path at the Santa Barbara Botanical Gardens.

This time of year it's at the greater heights in our local mountains that you will find the most wildflowers.  I'm not sure if there are more cheerful flowers than California Poppies.  This painting was done several years ago and hangs on our wall, this was a good week to share. 

Explore. Dream. Discover.

Have you see this link dear reader?  "30Thing to Stop Doing to Yourself" made the blog rounds during New Years but something going on in my life right now made me want to share it today.  I love it, it's worth a bookmark and regular revisits.

I've recently been introduced to this quote by Mark Twain.  Love this, too.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do.  So throw off the bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
