Wayside Flowers, Woodland / Megan

It’s been a great year for lady’s slippers – there were more of them where I usually find them, and I found some at Mackworth Island, where I’ve never found them before.   But this was by far the best patch I’ve seen this year.   Conveniently located just past the kayaks at my dads’ camp.

The state parks closest to Portland are back open.     I can’t tell you how happy I’ve been to be able to go back to them.    They’re some of my favorite spaces, and I’ve missed them.
