FREMONT, CA — 2020 was officially a drought year, but we clearly had an impressive bloom of California Poppies that spring. Saul Cepeda said that his daughter Olivia snapped this photo in the East Bay Hills, and that "no poppies were harmed in the making of the photo." We are relieved to hear that!

Thank you for sharing this ebullient photo, Saul. We hope that you have it framed!
