After making the trek through the breezy, hilltop piney woods splashed with purple from violets, wild iris, and phlox, my daddy, my sister and I would descend to the hardwood bottoms filled with intoxicating pink crabapple blossoms, tall white oaks clothed in mint green leaves and brilliant maples glowing red hot with samaras dancing in the breeze. llowing week boasts balmy, cloud-covered mornings, rainy afternoons, and stormy evenings with lightning shows that put any fireworks display to shame. spring I look forward to fighting the bees and my horse’s dislike of flying insects and mud, just to get the chance to lean into the wild honeysuckle shrub and submerge myself in its springtime splendor.
