Roses and honeysuckles are in flower in the dooryards as well as asters & Chrysanthimums. Grass and alpilaria and many tender plants are growing, fresh & green. The winters are said to be very mild with practically no snow to remain on the ground in the valleys. The summers are said to be delightfully cool. A little farming & fruit raising is done in the valley but tillable land is scarce. A deer track was seen near the town & there are said to be lots of deer, some bear & mountain lions. A few Thomomys hills were seen on the flats near Glendale, but none on the ridges or in the heavy timber. Eutamias townsendi and pine squirrels are common. Bluebirds, Juncos & English sparrows were eating woodbine berries from vines on the porch. One mountain quail was seen & a Cooper haw & robins & cedar birds
