Returning

Some friends who live in the hills above Winters had their annual picnic today. The brodiaeas were out, almost past; the poppies up there are smaller and more yellow than the ones down here.

Where the maypole was...We ended up at the table with the pomologists and mathematical ecologists (hey, it was in the shade).

It’s an informal gathering, one where it’s completely acceptable to wander off for a hike or a sketch, which we did.

A year and a half ago, we got married at this spot. It’s a lot greener in March!

  1. We need the people who know fruits. But the mathematical ecologists? That’d be like sitting with the language poets, no?

  2. Greener yes, but so bare without a maypole!

  3. Oh my, so there is green in them thar hills! But did you see a Golden Eagle?
