In this past week the bloom of the golden flowers along Highway 78 have just begun to spread. They only last one month and they are miracle to see. This photo is last year in full bloom. It is an enchanting welcome to our snowbirds and tourists passing through Lakeport in Glades County. I have returned as well after several month travelling this summer to visit family. This is the first post on my blog for quite a while. Last year I tired out after an agitating ”battle” with some of our local politicians. But, I return with a peaceful heart. Today I want to contemplate the beauty of nature, be more positive and approach problems differently. We talked a bit last year about how fun it would be to have a wildflower festival, we debated the true name of these flowers and I am resarching this topic once again. I will post it soon. (Read the stories again if you like in my November archives- 2009) I am also thinking about sponsoring a Wildflower Photo Contest this year. It could be fun. I will let you know.
Nice to be back!
