Prime week or so of spring wildflowering - camp creek, bluefield city park, bull falls, and on our mountain. found my first morel, that was a thrill! rockfarmer found his first lady slipper - also a thrill! attended a first communion. celebrated a #8 birthday. busy couple of weeks. enjoyed family, friends, and mother nature ~ who could ask for more.

Very successful wildflower safari at Camp Creek State Park. We both documented many pretties. Rockfarmer is back!

They're back!

Interesting day. Went to shed to get out my ATV - Sam having her kittens in shed. Decided to ride other one instead. Checked cat box on deck to see why Sam didn't have kittens there. Good reason, was a dead raccoon in cat box. Cleaned up that. Had lunch. On to mowing yard. Tractor tire repairman arrived. Multiple thorns in tire. Repairs made. Mowing finished. After dinner watched a movie - "No Country for Old Men". rockfarmer gave it ****. I gave it *, maybe. Did keep me awake, hoping for some redeeming value.

Trilliums are blooming on Sandlick. Looks like a bumper crop this year. Christmas fern fiddleheads are up (have not gotten a good shot yet). Walk in woods yesterday very rewarding. Saw bloodroot in bloom, fiddleheads from Christmas fern, lots of mayapple coming on, a sea of spring beauty, pussytoes (male & female), violets (purple, yellow, confederate), a new one (VA pennywort) and blue cohosh in bloom. Went to woods in search of morels - did not see a one. Excellent walk anyway!

Busy week - 2 dr appt - shopping trips - mowing - Fri. trip to camp creek to finds lots of beauties. Congrats to yakfur for her bounty of morels! Watched gasoline prices climb beyond belief. Listened to politicians banter. Boy hugs this weekend. Wishing beach goers fair weather and fun. New photo album posted: March images

Now we see eye to eye!
