Today's QOD from the basket is:
"If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen."-Harry Truman
Really? Harry Truman? Who knew? I completely concur with HT. I get very focused when I am doing something and I thrive under pressure. I realize others are not this way. No problem; stay out of the kitchen. Ha ha!
Today we slept in and took off late at 7:30(ish). This was a mistake as it was already around 80 degrees. For me this is uncomfortable. I know I am a sissy; but I don't care. Gimme AC baby! So, this is where I admit that we did not find the 'end' of the trail as I had to turn back home for water lest I die of thirst. Although, I have resolved to go back earlier tomorrow with H2O and perhaps D, my sweetie(unlikely, but I will invite him).Let's go on a walk, shall we?
First of all, this is very signature S. Cal. : landscaped roadways. Everything is landscaped. We walked this road on our way to the creek.Where I came upon a red playing card: The King of Clubs(lucky number 13?).
A few steps beyond, I found a blue playing card: The 7 of Spades(lucky number 7?) This seemed serendipitous to me and I kept them. Perhaps they'll go into a collage piece later. See my Eclections blog.When we came upon the trail, we were above it. It's still manicured as most of the parks are in Temecula; but surrounded by natural areas outside the fence.We meandered down and Xena found a deflated soccer ball that I forgot to photo. Oh well. Onward!
There were a few beautiful flowers.You had the sense of being in a pasture, surrounded by the white fencing.I photographed some odds and ends to hone my photography skills.
And then, both Xena and I were hot, so we went home.

Vanessa,
Great photos! Especially the close up of the pink blossoms and the last one. Where's the music?
