Yellow flowers~Today's Flowers`020214

I went for a long morning walk this morning out by the city-owned golf course and was surprised to see so many brittle bushes in bloom...already!  It's only January!  They don't usually bloom until March.  While the rest of the country has been freezing, California, as you know, is in the middle of a heat wave and drought.  Our mountains have VERY little snow on them and in fact this past week, they just got a dusting of snow.  But, they are way below normal for the season.  While I was pleasantly surprised to see these, it IS early in the season.  Today's Flowers for February 2, 2014.   To visit Today's Flowers, please go to:
