There were more flowers in that bit of meadow; I'll post them tomorrow.
The larkspur is very pretty. You get around quite a bit. Have you ever been up the Stella and Pye Lakes area? We are planning to go there this summer. - Margy
ReplyDeleteMaybe we can co-ordinate; I'd love to see you when you're here!
DeleteI haven't been to either of those lakes yet. From fall to late spring, I stay off most of the gravel roads, because the potholes get really hungry. I will probably find my way to a few lakes in the area this summer.
