Most of my time in France is spent either in the country or small towns, so I have lots of photos of flowers, plants, and landscapes. This beautiful bit of meadow was not far from my s-i-l and b-i-l’s house.

Age gracefully.
Sorry if I didn’t get to your blog yesterday. Lots going on in these last days before I leave, including a big mulching job, errands, picking up (but not filling out yet) job applications for fall, etc., etc. Life just gets in the way sometimes. 🙂
Wandering Wednesday

Our wanderings take us to Philadelphia for the weekend (with an overnight stop in Akron, Ohio on the way), so I’ll be MIA until Monday, although I might be on Instagram. Just to tide you over, here are some beautiful blooms from my visit to Descanso Gardens. Have a wonderful rest of the week and weekend.

I’ve been promising you wildflowers and wildflowers I shall give you. Tuesday morning I spent a blissful, damp, and muddy two hours on the back trails of my park. I didn’t see any wildlife other than various birds, but the flowers were still out in profusion, more so where there was shade. These shots were all taken with my iPhone 5s. If I misidentified any of these, someone let me know. 🙂
