Signs that a “super bloom” of wildflowers is about to hit Anza-Borrego Desert State Park are popping up across the desert floor about two hours east of San Diego.
Botanists, business leaders and visitors are already buzzing around the tiny town of Borrego Springs, where big changes are overtaking the typically stark landscape.
“It’s incredibly green,” said Kathy Dice, superintendent of the 900-square-mile park, which stretches from the Riverside County line to the Mexican border in eastern San Diego County. “That’s the thing all of us have noticed. I’ve never seen it so green.”
Campgrounds in the park are packed and hotels are encouraging people to book rooms now before they are all gone. At La Casa del Zorro Resort & Spa, even weekday reservations are between 80 and 90 percent full for the next three weeks, said Lynn Bowen in the resorts sales department.

Grand Designs UK presenter Kevin McCloud gets his first view of the completed Dutch barn-style house in the Fens - with an annex for the grandparents.
REVIEW: The Dutch barn-house build on
Grand Designs UK is astonishing for lots of reasons, not least for its size, and the fact three generations will be living here – Nathan is not only building a home for his wife and child, but also an annex for his mum and stepdad, who have lived in a trailer for 13 years. But when this show screened in the UK earlier this year, many viewers could only talk about it being a deathtrap for a toddler, and the fact it looked like a giant crematorium. Which is pretty sad.

European VC firm Flashpoint said that it plans to invest “at least” $100 million in Israeli startups over the next three years, after it raises a targeted $200 million in a secondary fund.
The London-based firm, which has $350 million in assets under management, said it has completed a first close of $70 million of the new secondary fund, and aims to close the fund by early 2022.
The new fund will invest in later-stage tech companies, providing the selected firms also with the mentorship and expertise of the Flashpoint team, the tech investment firm said in a statement.
