Capay, California in The Spring

Before I knew it, our nine months at Capay Open Space Park in Yolo County had come to an end. Although I initially dreaded the thought of staying there for so long, over time I came to really appreciate our little private park (or so it seemed to us most of the time), the surrounding farmlands, the little town of Esparto, and most of all the opportunity to spend time with family and friends. When we arrived at Capay in September everything was brown and dry and windswept (see pictures here). By the time we left in May, Spring had arrived, and a whole other landscape was painted. Below are some pictures of how Capay looked when we left on May 15, 2012.
