| Hermit Charlies Observatory in the Wilderness |
|
| Way way away from street lights and groun fog you'll think you can tuch the stares. |
I've been spending a lot of time in the wilderness and really
enjoying
it like I've never had before, I think springing has finally
broken. As
I was looking the other ways for a while last week all the
flowers has
breasted in to bloom. I spent all day Saturday in a place
called Ellwood
Shores. Bountiful green fields on many bluffs over
looking the Santa Barbara Channel and Islands. Lots of wild flowers
and this time of year Monarch butterflies (thousands and thousands
per eucalyptus tree) fluttering around everywhere. They spend the
winters
in the many eucalyptus trees along the coast. In a couple of
weeks they
will start their 900 mi. migration up the inland mountain
range to Beautiful
British Columbia in Canada for the summer.
Then in
the fall there offspring travel the same 900 mi. back to our not
so
cool wintering groves on the planes above the Ellwood
Beach, on the
California shores.
