Sunday Stroll Reflections – Showy Lady’s Slipper

Here are some photos of  our most recent Sunday walk. We had a total 21 people there all of whom stayed around for some refreshments.

The group sitting on the long stone bench.

 

The stone bench in the group photo is a flat stone about 10 feet long – what a bench and a great view of the Green Mts!  The view included Killington, Abraham, Ellen and, we think, Camel’s Hump and Mansfield in the distance – those are all the VT 4000 plus foot mountains.Some of the showy lady’s slippers were prime and especially brilliant but even those past prime were still the prettiest of wildflowers. There were over 200 of them in a small area. Wow!
