Old Friends

Our morning walks are meetings with many old friends, natives to this area, always blooming in the same locations. They are a little later this year with the cold winter and early spring, but they remind us, This is the beginning, again.

A Blue Dick? on one of the south-facing
slopes.
You have to know just where to look
to find this Chocolate Lily each year.
She is multiplying, but at most, there are only
about a dozen of her that I have seen.
