We’re finally settling in to our new life in Louisiana. Of course we
miss parts of our former life in North Bend. We lived in a magical place—the river, the
mountains, the snow, the wildflowers—thinking of it now is like a dream. Of course I miss it at times, but then I
think of all that wonderful vitamin d I get just about every day in this
tropical paradise just a short drive from New Orleans.
Then, I look at the cool flowers and foliage can grow
here. Oh my goodness. This girl could only dream of growing these
successfully in the shadow of a mountain in the Pacific Northwest. Here are a couple of my favorites.
