The Flower of the Day is the Large-flowered Trillium. It is not only beautiful to see, but it provides a breathtaking scene in the dark hardwood forest -- white flowers like a carpet as far as one can see. So different than anything we've seen before, and they bloom in mid-May, so they will be a treat for us to look forward to when we return.
But we are now in the process of leaving, not returning. Greg and Lori helped us this past weekend. Flower containers were emptied, deck furniture moved to the back ready for storage in the shed. A haircut interrupted the work as did dominoes and cards. We have done some packing, but we still have clothes, food and a few more things to pack, and a cabin to clean.
We now plan to leave this Friday, if we can get everything done. We are anxious to be on our way, and again back home with those we love and care for -- family and friends.
And one last item -- the picture that was taken on an early morning last week. Just more of the amazing beauty that God has blessed us with.
Pictures are lovely - I'm sure it's hard to leave. Looks like it is getting cold, tho, by the hats, etc. Glad Greg and Lori could help you close up - miss you.
