Spring in northern Missouri

We have a Redbud in Mo.

One living, breathing, blooming,

Redbud. 

and one dead one.  Darn!

Himself and I had a good visit.

We swept and prepared the cabin. 

Meeting --

Next weekend.  You all come.   

I hiked the banks.  

I walked the roads and the little lake.

First time.

(more about that later). 

We rode to Lake Marie

and saw the new and the old cabins  

Home again,

and enjoyed the evening on the porch.

This trip, we soaked up sunshine

and relaxation by the yard.

Too soon

it came, to journey back home. 

Above, Pretty, delicate Sweet Williams.

Or as some say,

Wild Phlox.

Photos just do not do it justice.
