40 Minutes of Sunshine

This is a post showing summer in Wisconsin

Back in May or June I wanted to stop for a walk on a work day and made a quick detour to Table Bluff on the Ice Age Trail to enjoy the views.



I was early for the big summer bloom show that happens up on the bluff, but I did get to catch some early Columbine and didn't have to fight mosquitoes to find them!

Usually the Corydalis I come upon in the wild is pink and yellow, but this area had some lavendar that was lovely.

The lovely blue-violet of Prairie Spiderwort is best seen mid-day as it opens in the morning and closes at night.

I think the picture above is a type of foxglove, but if anyone knows different feel free to correct me!

Hello, Flowers!

That's what the flowers see when I bend down to say hello!  They are probably thinking, quit blocking the sun, Lady!  I only had 40 minutes to enjoy the sunshine, but they had all day so I didn't feel too badly.  And now we are heading into the time of year where the sun gets more scarce so what a lovely thing to find this unfinished post.



I wound through the woods a bit, happy for the shade, but couldn't linger too long since I had clients to see. I can't remember if I was too early for the Mayflower or too late, but I didn't see any blooming this year.

I wasn't the only one out enjoying Table Bluff, as I was going in a class trip was heading out.  What a great way to end the school year!
