Mix of sun and clouds with cooler comfortable temperatures. Kelley appeared a little stiff last night so a short easy one today. We usually start from Hillside but last time ran into a construction project so started from the end of Penobscot St. Near the river is a field of milkweed that I was hoping would be in bloom with monarchs feeding .
The start is mostly a walk in the woods
and crosses a small stream
and then a meadow with some flowers
The daisies are starting to be a bit beat up
When we reached the milkweed we found the buds had not yet opened
but there were other wildflowers
We crossed the tracks and found this wood on the rocks
The banks of the Penobscot are mostly fairly steep but Kelley found a way down.
Wild morning glory
Kelley seemed to be OK and to enjoy the short hike. 1 hour
Lovely wildflowers!
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda- they are finally here
DeleteLoving ALL the pics you've been posting. Just beautiful! That's such a great camera! I'm very jealous of your weather/temps. It's been miserably hot here in Louisville , in the 90's . We just skipped Spring and went straight to Summer . Supposed to get near 100 this weekend, ugh! We'll see ...
ReplyDeleteThank you Serafina - I don't care for hot weather either. Come to Maine
DeleteThat's the plan :)
