Winter Research in Anza Borrego CA
Tuesday, February 19th, 2008
Our son, photographer Ron Niebrugge and his wife Janine join Bob and I during a day hike in the Anza Borrego State Park in southern California. We are spending time in the desert this winter anticipating a bonanza wildflower bloom due to the excellent timing of rain in the area. The plants are full of buds and we expect to see a great burst of flowers within the next week or so. On February 20 we hope we will be able to witness a total lunar eclipse, it will depend on wether or not we have clear skies. So far it has been sunny and warm. A nice break from the winter in Alaska.
More tomorrow,
Gail Niebrugge, Alaska Artist
