out my back door

Yup, this is the season for the wildflowers in the desert. They are especially prolific this year because of all the rain at the end of last year. When we lived in Wickenburg, we had a wash at the back end of our property, and behind that we used to have a wall of yellow wildflowers about this time of the year. Oh, in Arizona, it's illegal to pick them, just as it is illegal to remove a cactus without a permit, even from your own land.
