some people just want to ski one more time... me im one of those dixie boys too...love the warm weather....druther turkey hunt than ski or drive my car on the lake... those flowers are beautiful.... charlie

Charlie ,those Blue Bonnets are the state flower.
You sometimes can see an acre or more so thick with them that it looks like a carpet.
Grover,the Hound posed for the picture..my dog,Jack saw a rabbit and took off across the field..no luck though..Jack likes the chase more than the kill...Bill:fg:

i can see why the are the state flower...such beauty...i use to be like your hound and like the chase but mostly have to just sit and listen now.... charlie

There's nothing better than just sitting and listening...

To the world waking up as the sky turns from star studded to dawn.
To the neighbor farm dogs communicating back and forth over a mile or more.
To each distant tractor firing to life.
To the cows mooing as they exit the barns.
To the turkeys flying down from roost trees.
To the 'one-lunger' crescendo of the cock Ruffed Grouse.
To the peenting of the mating woodcock.
To the movements of deer in the crisp leaf litter on the woods floor.

It doesn't get any better.

Man..that is pure poetry...:bowdown::bowdown:
