With no clouds in the sky on Saturday morning, my chances of making something out of the sunrise were slim. I decided to make a short trip up the hill to the outskirts of my laid-back little town of Fairfax, California.

The Iris are at their peak right now. And they are plentiful this year--seldom have I seen more. We were two months late in getting our Winter rains, but for some reason the Iris have responded with a bumper crop of beauties.

Quite a vantage point here... That's Mount Diablo in the distance and that's the San Rafael-to-Richmond Bridge mid-frame. The morning was warm and pleasant. I had to pinch myself to check if I was still dreaming.

So how's that for a little hour long adventure? I've been thinking of selling tickets...

Oh wow, SHANE, you know I don't think I've ever gotten a compliment quite like that. But yeah, we are of a similar mindset--I probably could have used a bit more sleep this morning, but there was the blog to prepare. I hope everyone can see how much fun I have with it.
