Remember when Dorothy dozes off among scarlet poppies in “The Wizard of Oz?” Well, those vivid flowers weren’t just a figment of Hollywood magic. Similar poppies set California’s Antelope Valley ablaze in spring, luring road-trippers from L.A. and beyond.

Because of the dry winter, this year's display may not be very good, although the recent rains will surely help. Because I once lived in the area as a boy, each year in April make the trip back to visit and take in the flowers in the Reserve and the surrounding areas.

I've done the San Juan Skyway and that is a wonderful drive, albeit quite short. Some of these others sound fantastic too.
