(Belated) Sunday Sierrablogging

Grouse Lake 08
Was away from the computer all day yesterday, chasing wildflowers. (Actually, chasing wildflowers then getting a flat tire then chasing a repair shop open on Sunday...but the wildflowers were the good part.)

This is Grouse Lake in Mokelumne Wilderness.
