Swallowtail in the Orange Grove ~ I love the scent of orange blossoms in the air in April in Redlands. Western Tiger Swallowtail butterflies show up in April as well. Ain't spring great?
At one of the exhibits celebrating Redlands' 125th anniversary, I saw these old orange crates and a picking bag, showing a taste of its citrus history. Judith Sparhawk
Asistencia Mission in Winter ~ This bell tower is part of a small mission in Redlands, which was orignially an adjunct of the San Gabriel Mission, one of the original California missions. It remains a historic icon of the Redlands area.
