Being a construction of your humble blogger Tepid Halibut, with the aim of posting one vintage slide image per day, from now until Kingdom Come. (Or until Mr Halibut gets bored.)

Picnic at Antelope Valley
This lockdown means that I have fewer excuses to avoid looking out the old scanner, and scanning some more of the backlog of slides. If I do 100 per day, then... gulp.
This slide, in a large box-full, with a posting date of June 2011, is labelled "Antelope Valley 4-16-83", so the blog title seems appropriate.
Today I learned that Antelope Valley California Poppy Reserve State Natural Reserve exists, and yes, does seem to be the location of this slide.
