Default The last installment from Rock Creek

Here's my last set for the Rock Creek area. Hope you all like them. I sure enjoyed remembering the fun time we had there.

Is this place beautiful or what?

I call it pinstemon but I really don't know what it is.

The first two are absolutely stunning Fred. The scenery is breathtaking a lovel flower too and well, we have to leave even a beautiful place soemtime, and a nice trail back to finish of this excellent series. Nicely done Fred.

Dave.

Beautiful? Or what? I'm going with BEAUTIFUL! There's a book I found on Amazon entitled: Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children From Nature-Deficit Disorder. I know you have committed yourself to making sure your children were exposed to Nature's beauty. You nurture your own soul as well. No wonder you are such a lovely man--you have all this in you!

Can you see me blushing Lindy? Thanks so much for the very kind comment you made. I did try to make sure my kids love and appreciate the natural beauty around us. One of them is an artist and one is an avowed outdoors enthusiast so I guess I did OK. I am very glad you liked the series.
