We spent a couple of months in Julian CA this spring. We both have family in San Diego County and Jeff likes his doctor who he’s seen for several years.

Julian is beautiful in the springtime!  We arrived just a few days after the last snowfall in the area and there were little patches of snow on the ground.  Our RV park is just south a few miles from the town of Julian and is on a ridge with great views in both directions – to the west you can see almost to the ocean.  To the east you can see the Cuyamaca Mountains and a little bit of the desert behind them.

It was very green the whole time we spent in Julian, where the rest of San Diego County is green for a few weeks and then starts to turn brown again.  Also, lots of people who live in and around Julian plant bulbs, so there were daffodils all over the place, in front of homes, meadows full of them, etc.  They have a Daffodil festival in April, and after the daffodils there are lilacs blooming everywhere and a Lilac festival.  And in the RV park there were lots of irises which is my favorite flower.

Here are some pictures of the local wildlife (lots of turkeys!) and the views:
