Yet another desert flower with which I will say goodnight. I noticed something funny when I was placing my left knee down on the ground: I clearly wasn’t the first to do that, and there was a rather comfortable indentation in the gravel where my knee fit perfectly!
I’m fairly certain this is a monkeyflower, and I’m thinking it might be Bigelow’s Monkeyflower.

I finally managed to get a short walk in. It was less than six miles, but I was just happy to get out and about. Here is my first shot of the day. The calendulas are blooming, as are so many other flowers in my neighborhood. Not only was the walk colorful, but with the jasmines, roses and various other plants blooming it was quite fragrant as well.
