Picnic Time

We took advantage of the lovely weather Easter Sunday to go for a scenic drive. We took Angeles Crest Highway from La Cañada/Flintridge to Palmdale, stopping along the way for a picnic lunch. It was around 85° Fahrenheit in the Valley. As we gained elevation, the temperature dropped, but even at the highest point (9000 feet or so) it was never colder then 58° F.


We could see snow on the distant mountains, but didn't expect to find it still on the ground along our route. Our picture was snapped by a friendly tourist, dressed in shorts and a Hawaiian shirt.
