Today's Flowers: Glorious Morning
 |
| From August 2, 2011 |
I came across this beauty at Hammocks Beach State Park in Swansboro, North Carolina, last Tuesday, where I spent the day working with other volunteers for the North Carolina Coastal Federation to build oyster shell sills along Jones Island. What a day. What a park. This spectacular state park is spotless, inviting, peaceful, gorgeous.

Great color, great in the wild but they engulf my garden if I'm not vigilant.
ReplyDeleteSandy, this is gorgeous. It says fearless to me for some reason. And the things you are doing down there are awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful flower. I've enjoyed going to the park before although it's been a while. Great that you were volunteering.

Flowers are so rich, yet they merely wallow in their own simplicity.
ReplyDeleteI bet the park is inviting and beautiful because of volunteers like you who maintain it.
