Friendly Lady Slippers

One of my favorite places to take photos is only about 3 miles from our house - Whalen Lake Road. A couple of years ago, I was heading down the road and I saw some wild flowers by the side of the road and I stopped to take pictures of them. As I was taking the photos, a dear lady came by and started to talk with me. I told her my name, which she has never forgotten. Every time I see her, either on Whalen Lake Road or at the grocery store, she always tells me to come by her house and take pictures of Lady Slippers that come up in the spring behind of her garage. Yesterday, I finally had a chance to take her up on her offer and I am very glad I did. There must have been a dozen plants that were blooming and simply beautiful. Now I know why she was so proud of them and wanted me to see and photograph them. I already made a few photo cards from the photos and they are absolutely beautiful! Thanks Phylis.Let me know if you think there were worth the effort.
