When we arrived at Creel from El Paso, we were met by Indian vendors selling their fabric woven belts and handbags. They are known to walk for hours just to meet the tourists to make sales.

Spring Morning
I decided to make an early visit to Sunol Regional Park to check on the wildflowers there. It's a forty minute drive from Oakland, then a thirty minute hike to this meadow along the Canyon View Trail. There were poppies and lupin in scattered bunches along the way, but this hillside covered with these tiny purple flowers made the trip worthwhile. Later in the year these hills will turn yellow and the heat here will be somewhat inhospitable.
