Spring Wildflowers
We went on a wildflower
walk to learn
the spring wildflowers
that are found in Laurel Gorge and near our home site.
Click on a picture to see a
larger
version.
The trillium carpet was spectacular. We saw more
trillium blooms in our walk through Laurel Gorge than the total we had
ever seen before.
It is only a slight exaggeration to say trillions of
trilliums
(apologies to Carl Sagan).
Come and visit Laurel Gorge
with us.
