Spring Stuck Its Toe In The Door

 

Adventure Location:

We got in a very nice walk today of about 2.4 miles and found a very nice surprise along the way. The spring flower bloom has started and we are really thankful. The first ones we spotted were near the soccer field and were white flowers growing close to the ground on lots of territory. That was a nice surprise when they came into view.

As we continued along, the yellow ground flowers were beginning to send up scattered flowers now and then in the area. We bet soon there will be lots of them showing off.

Then as we neared a white fence close to Flint Creek there were several very fresh growths of moss (we think) along the line of the fence rails on the ground. They were a very pretty green. We bet they would be difficult to look correct as a colored pencil drawing,

Then when we turned onto the through the woods trail back to the campground we found lots of small green leaves on the under brush of the trees. That also looked very nice too see coming to life.

It looks like the ice storm from a few weeks ago left us enough good vegetation to give us an exciting spring soon.

We very recently noticed SPRING BREAK is next week so we are giving careful thought how to stay safely out of that mess.

We plan to be back here next June through to September 15 for the summer heat.

However we are still hoping to get in a few weeks of travels this spring if things will just quit breaking down and let us roll.

In the meantime every one work on having tooooo much fun.
