This is a really nice pea:

Apparently they grow well here when in the right spot.

Here are some vines we saw today. They're obviously in season, though unfortunately much of what we saw was along frequently sprayed roadsides. Still, it's around and we gathered enough for a nice dish. I'm hoping to get some dried pods with viable seeds.

You can spot the vine by the unique blue flowers.
