I pull over on Ivanpah Road to check out a couple of Phacelias (Desert canterbury bells) in bloom
There's not much colour here except for green and brown, so these stand out (though I probably wouldn't notice them if I were speeding by in a motor vehicle). I see my first motor vehicle of the day: I exchange waves with the passing pick-up driver.
