  1. What a beautiful place. Reminds me (a little) of Ireland.

  2. I would love to go to Ireland. Jim and I always planned to go there, but it never happened. Won't, now, I suppose...

    Your pictures of the countryside around you are so lovely!

  4. Was that a picture of mountain laurel?
    It sure looks like it. That is my states flower! and it is protected here you can't pick it,though I often did as a kid..I lived basically in the woods,and grew up running barefoot through the woods! lol I miss it sometimes..but I don't miss the mosquitos!

  5. The flower is a magnolia. I have forgotten the specific kind, but it's related to the massive 12" flowers we get here on the huge trees with the huge shiny leaves.

    The little ones smell nicer...
