Spring has sprung in the forest.

  1. I love all the trilliums (trillia?) – you have more than we do at Cobb. And most of our creeks are dried up.

    1. We should have water in the creeks for another few months. It won’t be until the middle or end of August before the water starts retreating from the big creek.
