Wild Flowers




We went looking for wildflowers and found this field on Shell Creek Rd. I shot quite a few pictures of the flowers but they really don't show the absolute beauty. It was so quiet you could hear the birds singing. Ken got some close up pictures with his telephoto lens and I got one of him too. ha ha.












There were some people who had brought lawn chairs and set them out in the middle of all the flowers. Some were having lunch and others were just enjoying the beauty. Mom is showing off her flower in the photo above. As you can se it was a beautiul day. Temp around 72 degrees with a slight wind blowing.
Mom took this picture of me standing in the field of yellow flowers. (I shouldn't have been standing sideways. LOL)

I can't help but think of the wonder of creation. God created this beauty for us to enjoy. In Isaiah 40:8 the Bible asys that "The grass withers, the flowers fade but the word of our God remains forever."
In a few weeks the flowers in these fields will be gone, but Gods words are with us forever.
