Sep 23 Highland Scenic Highway

 


Purple Asters mixed with Black Eyed Susans and various sunflowers cover the roadside of this attractive highway. We stopped at every pulloff to check out the views and vegetation. 

The forest was cut 100 years ago and has been slow to recover. Clearcutting often results in erosion of the rich topsoil. that is apparent here. As you walk in the forest, many rocks are exposed which probably were not in the heyday of the forest.

Apr 1 Golden Club at Betty McGee Creek

  Off Thornburg trail I spotted these in the creek and again later in the day in Hannahs Creek. It is always a treat to see them blooming.
