1st Day of Summer Wildflower Walk

It has been a beautiful start to summer in Central KY!  Over the past few days, we’ve noticed many new wildflowers blooming on our farm.  Since we live down a little gravel road and have to either walk or drive about 1/4 mile to the mailbox, I thought we’d take a wildflower walk and see what God has placed before us on this start to a new season.

Here’s a glimpse of our road.  We only took pictures of things we could see without wandering too far off the road.

Here are many of the wildflowers we saw.  Almost 1/3 of my pictures were blurry because I tried to snap the shot too close to the flower.  I probably didn’t even take pictures of another 1/3 of what we saw.  God is amazing!

Of course, where there are wild flowers, there are butterflies.  We saw tons of them in all shapes, sizes and colors.

I couldn’t resist adding a picture of garden #1.  We’ve harvested cabbage and broccoli already.  The green beans will be ready in the next day or two.  As you can see in the slide show above, the wild blackberries are coming on, too.  I think tomorrow after church will be a blackberry walk!
