The Valley of the Antelope I: Cats
Ted and I recently spent the day in Antelope Valley, CA. Wildflowers are blooming beautifully this year, so we flew out to Lancaster to check them out. The flight out was a bit exciting due to turbulence encountered as we crossed the ridge lines. At one point I actually hit the ceiling with a good solid bonk–nothing too terrible, as it was a somewhat isolated pocket, but still enough to make one sit up and take notice. We arrived safely in Lancaster and got hooked up with a rental car, so we were ready to roll. But first, the most important meal of the day at Crazy Otto’s, our favorite breakfast joint in Lancaster. That’s eSpresso to you, buddy Our next stop was the Feline Conservation Center, which gave us an opportunity to visit the Neko brick and these amazing cats. Bath time for Twilight (jaguar) We were delighted to see Frisbee, the fishing cat, out and about and walking through the grass One of several peacocks who roam the grounds Ever wonder what a peacock looks like from behind? Well, wonder no more: This place is amazing. Staffed by volunteers, they really do a wonderful job of caring for these beautiful felines. Every time we visit, they’ve added something new: shaded bleachers for educational demonstrations; new benches; progress on the tiger enclosures. You can see how your donations are making a difference. If you ever find yourself in the area, I highly recommend a visit. (Feline Conservation Center) Next up: poppies and more…
