April 2003: Spring in San Diego county Check box, if you don't want to see comments when enjoying full-size pictures.

I hardly recognized San Diego, when I returned from Palmer Station. There were flowers everywhere! It must have continued raining while I was gone. Everything had sprung to life also in the desert areas east of San Diego. Cacti and wildflowers where in full bloom. It was beautiful!
