Stange Flowers

2020 08-09, 4672 - STRANGE FLOWERS – I think the strange flowers I photographed at the Center are from Hens & Chickens, but I could be wrong. The plant looks as if it should be in the desert rather than the mountains. I know that the landscape of life is filled with many flowers not considered normal.

2020 08-09, 4671 – NOW, THE GOLDEN ROD – Summer is half way to Fall, and now the golden rod is starting its show in the Lupine Field. For the next month it will dazzle observers with its bright yellow flowers. Nature acts as my calendar all year, helping me appreciate its changing show.

Another Wildflower Bouquet
|
2020 08-08, 4670 - ANOTHER WILDFLOWER BOUQUET – As I sat on the memory bench beside the Lupine Field I noticed a beautiful bouquet of wildflowers growing in a place where there was very little top soil. Nature was providing me with another gift to brighten my day. I am grateful.

2020 08-07, 4669 - MUSHROOM CHARACTER – I have seen a lot of characters in Nature, from tree spirits to cloud faces to a mushroom characters. Each encounter provides an opportunity for my mind to embrace a story that may relate to a situation in life that I am experiencing.

Storm Track to the West
|
2020 08-06, 4668 - THE STORM TRACKED TO THE WEST – The tropical storm, just below hurricane strength, roared up the East Coast and tracked by where we live to the West. I listened to the call on the scanner of trees down throughout the area. By morning it was gone and the sun was shining again.

2020 08-05, 4667 - BLUE WILDFLOWERS – There is a constant transition taking place in the Lupine Field from the disappearance of snow in the spring until it returns again in late fall. Right now, the beautiful and graceful blue Ragged Robin is in bloom. My intention is to daily discover something new in life.

In a Tangle
|
2020 08-04, 4666 - IN A TANGLE – I purchased a thousand foot coil of tubing to bring water from an old spring down the mountain to fill the Reflection Pool in the Peace Garden. We got half way there when it tangled up. My son worked on it for an hour or so and we decided to wait a week. Life is full of tangles.
