Flowers of Fall

When I started my wildflower garden, I didn’t have a clue what I was doing.

We passed a few patches of viburnum on our hike up South Moat Mountain last week. We didn’t snack on the bright red fruits, preferring the known apples we carried with us to the unknown effects of unidentified berries growing in the woods.

It’s good to be back! I haven’t put words down here in over two months, but the time has come.

We got home a few days ago after traveling to Trail Days, a festival celebrating hikers who have completed or are working their way through the Appalachian Trail.
