Stunning does not begin to describe the floral show on the Mt Ashland ski bowl right now. We stopped, stared, discussed, and hazarded identities for at least a half an hour -- right out of the cars, before we actually hit the trail. Darryl, Sunny, Colette, Rich, Sabin, Mary and I were in heaven. Yes, the Tower delphiniums are there, but there is so much more!
BTW - by popular demand, we will continue with Wildflower Walks for the foreseeable future.
Respectfully submitted, Flower floozy Liz
