spring pics
Such a wonderful weekend poking around in the woods! Then we came upon an open meadow and it was dotted with wildflowers - just a few, it is still April at 4,500 feet and the hardy ones are out. Lunch by the river and the twenty-somethings acting bullet-proof  (my daughter and her hubby).
I love weekends! |

I hate it when you Oregonians flaunt your wonderful weather to us easterners  Seriously, I really miss living in southern Oregon where temps were nice this time of year. |

Wow!  Our wildflowers are not that large or spectacular. Maybe has something to do with your altitude, my altitude is a nose bleeding 25 ft at its highest.

Has more to do with clean air, good living, somewhere to hike (besides swamps), nice views, and a great soil (unlike Florida sand). Just had to jump in here since Sara didn't respond.  |

Florida. We have over 1400 mile of the Florida Trail system,90% of them are not in swamp. It never snows. Hike all year. And a great ocean breeze from both sides (real fresh air). Oh yeh deep sea fishing, coral reefs, great beaches, you know where people vacation! And I didnt even mention the ORCHIDS. Can you even touch the water in the Great Lakes without needing shot? Have a great day.
