When I was younger I traveled through western Virginia with my Dad and the beauty of that area still sticks in my mind 45 years later. He was a truck driver and we took the back roads to avoid scales on our way to DC and Baltimore. Chesapeake Bay was awesome as well.

I visited Palm Canyon in December, it was a good walk. I kept going up the wash on a faint trail to the upper ridge area, beautiful.

Got sporophytes? This image shows a spore capsule after the protective calyptra and operculum have fallen off. The teeth are called perisotome and I believe I can actually see spores. The capsule must have just opened.
This was taken at Shoreview Park a couple of days ago.

Capitol Forest. Although this looks black and white, it's a color photo!

San Francisco Botanical Garden at Golden Gate Park. Both the Berkeley and San Francisco botanical gardens have extensive displays of South African flora which - despite the interpretive sign claiming otherwise - mostly bloom in the southern hemisphere spring and summer (our fall and winter). So if you yearn for flowers in the winter, these are good places!

I walked from Alpental up to Source Lake this week to look at ... snow. Got buzzed by a couple of feathered fighter pilots too.
