If you look very closely, you can see all of the tiny, white Lesser Stitchwort wildflowers along the trails at Fort Hill. They have pretty star-like flowers which are tiny, only 15-18mm across. I love the bright pink anthers on their stamens.
Have you seen them at Fort Hill? They bloom through August, so you still have plenty of time.
After breaking my leg 8 weeks ago, it feels so good be be back on the trails again. I got the ok for “little hikes” or “short bike rides,” so we decided to try this trail from Doane Rock to the bridge at Coast Guard Beach. Phil surprised me and took this photograph of me enjoying the gorgeous scenery on one of my first times out!
There are so many picnic areas in the National Seashore, that sometimes you have to choose which one you like better! (Click on blog link for other photos.)
One on our favorite areas to picnic is near Doane Rock where it is shady and cool. (Click on blog link for other photos.)
These picnic areas are near Doane Rock and have room for a family or a larger group. They are all accessible by car which makes it very easy. Have you ever picnicked there?
