Lupine and creosote

There is quite a bit of lupine in bloom now along Highway 74.  That's the good news.  The bad news is that I can't find a turnout where I can pull over to take photos or walk to a patch of it.  There is one turnout and I stopped there again yesterday to take photos of the lupine with my Canon.  I had my Nikon last time and it was extremely windy and only 2 photos came out in focus!  I pass patches and patches of lupine, but, with cars either whizzing the other direction or right up on my bumper, and NO turnouts, I can't stop.  So, these photos from yesterday will have to do for now.  I tried to scout the locations of the clumps of lupine, but they are all either on a curve with no turnout or a straight road with no turnout.  Hmmmm.....I'm going to have to figure this out!  Also, the creosote is blooming right now and it's actually pretty!s
