Today I drove to the mailbox on my weekly trip.  The wildflowers are just gorgeous!

I have never seen so many.  The fields are carpeted in yellow as in yellow flowers.

Then there is the mealy blue sage.  I have never seen so many and the colors are intense.  Deep purple with the lighter shade of white or light blue.

Not to mention my favorite of the firewheels and Mexican hats.

What wildflowers do you have blooming?  Share photos if you like!
