At The Backroads

I love the weather today, which is a very lovely and beautiful day at 70s!! It is so wonderful to feel like summer in winter with fall and spring scenery around. There is just no season here in San Diego, but a fusion of season! There is a touch of spring

with summer like temperature today at 70s!! Clearly, there is no distinct season in San Diego, all four seasons are just here this weekend! And my favorite picture representing San Diego’s no season but a fusion is this pink flower against the golden backdrop of autumn leaves.

And inside Botanical Building of Balboa Park, the orchids are in full show!

Lovely Orchid

Orchids are my favorite flowers because it reminds me of sweet home Philippines where beautiful orchids abound.

Though I definitely love the sun today ( but not the very strong Santa Ana winds) and the warmth brought about by Santa Ana wind, but I am wishing for more rain. Hmmmm, now, if we can only have sun during the day and rain at night, then, it would be perfect! I love rain because it would make me very hopeful for a wonderful spring just like in my last Tuesday’s walk where I saw butterfly and caterpillars.

Ah, the joys of being outside enjoying the surprises and gifts of nature is just priceless! It does not come with a price since you could not buy it, but the joy brings you hope and memories.
