My new friend sits in front of the Old West bar at the truly remote and old Scheidek Resort, in Los Padres National Forest, on the fringe of the Cuyama Valley.

Photo note - I used Photoshop to blur out the background, not easy to do in-camera when using a 21mm lens.

Two days ago I rode my bike up into the Santa Monica Mountains, north of my home in the flatlands of Los Angeles. The sun was about to set over the city, and the wild mustard stood out against the dark background of the next ridge. While much of the mountain scenery has been developed in Los Angeles, there are still many places from which to take in fine views. This photo was made on Astral Drive, above Nichols Canyon.

Recent bike riding paid off for me, as I completed the Chico Wildflower Century today, a one-day, 100 mile bike ride in northern California. It was a long drive - almost 500 miles from my home in Los Angeles to the city of Chico. This is a picture of my friend Sam Chin, age 20, who came up with me to participate on his first century ride; he proved to be a very strong rider. Sam is my age when I first attended college at Chico State, 36 years ago.

The Chico Wildflower Century is a one-day, 100 mile bike ride in northern California. A generous winter and spring rainfall meant there were indeed plenty of wildflowers.

This is the top of volcanic Table Mesa, which my friends Sam and Silas and I, along with several thousand other riders, gained after some serious pedaling that took us up 1,200 feet above the floor of the Sacramento Valley. It was a mostly cool day, with overcast, but it didn't rain the finish of the ride.

All that is left is the almost 500 mile drive back to my home in Los Angeles, in the southern half of the Golden State.

These wildflowers - goldfields - covered the landscape in the southern Cuyama Valley.

You find them all over the back roads - guard dogs, like this scary looking brute. The reality: he's a pussycat! Photographed alon Old HIghway 58, Barstow, in the Mojave Desert.

Red Rocks State Park, with its colorful and deeply eroded mudhills, is off of Highway 14, north of the desert town of Mojave. Dawn from the campground can be a very beautiful time to experience the park. This was quite a switch from my trip the prior weekend to the green and leafy hinterlands of northern California.

May 5, 2005 - Scroll It!

Don't shrink down this pano - four photographs stiched together - of Red Rock Canyon State Park to fill the monitor. Instead, use the "large" or "original" setting, so that this photograph can be scrolled across the monitor. Red Rocks is a strange place - these muhills, fossil beds, and amazing, blazing colors (however, the more colorful portions of the park are not visible in this photograph).
