37. I thought so, over on the east side by the trails up to the old quarry?

[urbanhermit]

38. Hidden springs area.

There's a lot of construction going on near the quarry so it will probably look similar in a couple of years.

16. Utterly gorgeous all.

Congratulations. A beautiful contest, and thank you California Peggy! It's real work to run a contest. But rewarding.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

31. Thank you, my dear Mira!

This time was a lot easier! I decided to write some notes to myself so that the details that can trip me up, wouldn't! And just doing it a couple of times works too. I agree about how rewarding it is as well.
