Highway 198

We left Tulare Saturday evening stopping for dinner and the night at Harris Ranch at I-5 and Hwy 198. In the morning, we headed West through Coalinga toward King City and Hwy 101. Hwy 198 is a much nicer drive than Hwy 152 further North.

Above is the usual shot with the RV.


The red flowers in the two pictures above are the reason we stopped. We haven't seen them before. There was no place to pull over so we had to hike back about a 1/4 mile to get the pictures. It's a good thing we hiked back. We didn't see any others like them.



Some day, maybe, we'll try to start putting names to the flowers. For now, we just enjoy them.
We're back home again in Palo Alto.
