These four images, to the right, are linked to four separate galleries. Together these galleries hold more than three hundred new photos. They are in date order, the most recent is the upper left, and the oldest is in the lower left. BUT, none of them are that old, they were all taken last week.

The lower right was an Earthquake Valley with Barry Bunker. Actually, we began on the Sunrise highway, and then moved through Earthquake valley, ending in Jacumba.

The next one was a day trip to Quail Gardens in Encinitas, and Torrey Pines State park, just south of Del Mar. I like the Quail gardens pond full of Water Lilies and frogs. And there is always something interesting at Torrey Pines.

The top two were taken because Val and Bill Loskota invited me up to the Huntington Botanical gardens, because of the unusual beauty of the cactus gardens this spring. After all, the spring rains have brought some very special colors into the cactus gardens. ... I also like the Japanese Gardens there. It has a wonderful arching bridge.

Have a great time touring the gardens. — Jack
