| taken: day thirty one 07.21.2011 |
First of all let me just say that this was a proud day. A big, bright, beaming day for me. After a month of working on this blog {mostly} in secret I finally revealed it to the world and announced it on facebook. I had such an incredible reaction to it by many of my family and friends. It was so wonderful! I feel very grateful for the fabulous support sent my way. I've said it over and over and I'll say it again...THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!
Now back to normal life, another trip to the library meant another trip down the nature trails. I'm learning so much about native wildflowers. I've always found them fascinating. Even as a little girl I'd play *flower shop* with the wildflowers {shhhh weeds} growing nearby. I even went as far as to tell myself that when I grew up I wouldn't have a yard with mowed grass but instead I would have a yard sprawled with wildflowers and tall grasses. Until now I hadn't taken the time to learn all the names and detailed information about these interesting plants that are such an important part of our surroundings.

I just learned that this sensational purple beauty is a 'hoary verbena'. It's standing proud and tall and beaming with color.
