Carl Sandburg - Barry and Shirley Visit



We spent a beautiful afternoon at the Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site





hiking all the way to the top of to Big Glassy Mountain.






Barry pointed to Mount Pisgah in the distance






Shirley took the time to point out many interesting plants and call them by their scientific names.








 I was happy that Shirley pointed out the Poison Ivy



before I discovered it on my own.




 The mighty Tulip Trees like towering thunder





 shed some of their bounty






 on mortals asunder





 Shirley also identified this unique three leaf edible


individual, the Sassafras.





Mmmm Good!





Beautiful blossoms









ushered our way


as if in Celebration


of
Our Beautiful Day!
