Looking For Wildflowers
#1



The weather was beautiful this morning, clear blue sky and delightfully cool, perfect for a ride around our county to look for fall flowers. We went north from home first toward K'ville then west and north along the Scuffletown Road toward Alma. The flowers are scarce this year because of a late summer drought but we manage to find a few small patches. Next we head south toward Blackshear on GA203 which meanders through fields of peanuts and cotton ready for harvest. Long gentle curves make this part of the ride especially relaxing. In Blackshear we stop for burgers at a diner then head south on Ga121 heading to Hoboken. We take a turn east a little later to connect up with the Snake Road, so named for it's many curves (many curves by south Georgia standards anyway), heading toward home. It was a splendid day.

Mid 50's at night, mid 70's in the afternoon. It's been very pleasant out, our windows are open and the central air is taking a break from keeping us cool this long summer. Looking forward to the low energy bills the next couple months.
