Mother's day!! I spotted only one on Amso, over by the hospital. Usually there are two or three in that area every weekend.

Where do you usually look?

Went hiking in Blue Sky Reserve the other day. This is the second time. First time I went it was cooler and I took the path out of the reserve towards Lake Poway. This time it was hot and we ALMOST made it up to Ramona lake, but we were running low on water and had to turn back. The reserve is beautiful and an easy walk. The path to Poway lake is more difficult than going through the reserve, but not as steep as the way to Ramona lake. If you go, definitely bring a lot of water. There's no water there to refill a bottle and once you start heading out of the reserve toward either of the lakes there's very little shade. But it's a beautiful walk and great exercise. Does anyone else spend time in Blue Sky reserve? Any suggestions for other beautiful hikes?

Hey, tweesparkle...

Poway's cutest girl, by which I mean my roommate's 6 year old daughter, loves to hike "the scary path" up to Twin Peaks.

To start go over by the hospital and find a street call Larchmont. Drive all the way to the dead end and park there in front of the houses.

It is about 25 minutes to the top on well maintained trails that see little use but lots of wild life.

At the 360 vista at the top, you will look down on some of the most exclusive houses in Poway.

But, don't forget to look for Cortez gold that awaits a lucky finder!! hehe. True story!

Oh, you can also go about 1/2 way up and stay to your right. The trail will descend into Silver Set Park. Some people start at the park, but it isn't nearly as much fun.

Suzie went to Lake Hodges yesterday and loved it. Have you tried there?

Is a German thing?

Always been puzzled by misspellings in Ramona. First it was the Pott Belly Stove shop on Main St., but then I began seeing the Ks.

Kahoots feed store, then the Kountry Kitchen.

Are these related to Poway's Kountry Kafe?

I'm getting more convinced the German emphasis on K-words (Das Kapital) must be the answer.

See the Ramona Holler for photos.
