Spring is busting our all over and we have been enjoying it immensely.
WILD FLOWER HUNTING IN PERRY COUNTY -
Florence and I traveled to our beloved Perry County PA
yesterday. I called my friends at the Tuscarora Forest
Office to find out if the red bud were blooming - their
answer was yes so we headed north and west. The
forests were lined with the beautiful red buds in full
bloom - it is worth the trip and we try to do it every year
- we also saw rue anemone, false rue anemone, spring
beauty, colts foot, dandelions (surprise - I think they
are beautiful) many varying violets, a fantastic bed of
trillium granda flora, several strawberries, wild columbine,
bowman's root and much more. I remembered to
take my camera, all the extra lenses, and equipment
and discovered that I left the battery at home in the
charger - sorry folks no pics
this time.
We have made repeated trips to Shenk,s Ferry in the
last 2 months. Wild flowers started early this year and
the glen is at it peak of
blossoms now.
