Spring is in the air

For any of you seniors willing to travel, and set up a rental car, the current huge Pacific Ocean AR storm is forecast to deluge our Southwest deserts of California and Arizona that only occur infrequently over decades. When such does occur and at this time of January, it will result in spectacular greening and wildflowers in our deserts from seeds that have laid dormant for years. During this current 2023/2024 winter, our deserts have already received modestly above normal rains so this imminent storm in national news is certain to make it a most special time during our lifetimes.

The following link is a favorite for those chasing these events with sub-links to various regions and parks. The first location to rise to such will be at vast Anza Borrego State Park, east of San Diego. That ought be ripe in 3 to 5 weeks that will result in an explosion of reports with photos.

Lodging costs about Borrego Springs are still rather modest. After the storm this week, news media will undoubtedly begin to proclaiming "Superbloom" stories and given certain mania, lodging costs will greatly rise with little availability. Thus this is a brief period, you snooz you luz.
