ok...somebody please tell me these ARE Lupines....







i sure hope they are cause they look like what i remember lupines in Idaho looking like! I found these things going wild out beside the road today! If they are i'm going to say YAY for SOUTH CAROLINA!!!! we do have some Rocky Mountain plants after all! :-)

I can see why you think so but the leaves are for sure not lupines. I'd google South Carolina weeds and flowers pictures and see if you can find it. I could very well be in the family. Delphinium, and Digitalis (foxglove) are in the same family as lupines, I believe.

Arla is right about the leaves, they are not lupine leaves but i can see why you think the flower does look like them

yes i notice that too about the leaves but the flowers are so close! even if they aren't i'm going to call them that! ;-) not really! they are very pretty along side the road though...we have the most wildflowers this year i've ever seen! i think its cause of the rain we had this winter....

Nope, definitly not lupines. The foilage is all wrong. Hmmm... Don't know what they are; just what they aren't. Is there a lesson in that? Hahah!

I think it's that on this page of Steve Sykora's Everwilde Farms.
It's called Hairy Beardtongue! I finally found it after looking and looking. Is this right?

ponderings...

Some times i wonder....why do i even blog? do ppl even read it? but then i wonder am i selfishly wanting ppl to notice? do they have to comment? I rarely comment on other's posts...so why should they comment on mine? I do try to comment all the time! but for some reason since my computer is so slow....the internet anyway...it tells me i'm not allowed to....so even if you don't see a comment from me know that i wanted to! and maybe that's everybody elses problem! the same one i have! their internet's being snotty! ha! ;) I love to read all the blogs i do read and wish like crazy that i could comment! so here a some comments i've thought about recently.... Amy...I loved your Christmas blog! and i know ya'll might get tired of me saying this...but it almost brought tears to my eyes...thinking as how we miss out on that kinda stuff here in South Carolina.....since everybody else...or a bunch of everybody else is way out there! But thanks for the pictures and all...

Hello to all....

This wireless internet is really nice...i'm going to have to get use to my slow phone at home again in about a week...I am supposed to fly home next monday....if the weather isn't bad...the weather has been lovely! I have been enjoying the crispness of the northern air! I will have to learn to endure the muggy wet of the south...i did it last year to i'll survive again! School teaching is something I love! i forgot how much i loved it until about 3 weeks ago when i began teaching again as a substitute teacher here at Northwoods...It was a little strange at first being in a new school and stuff but i soon got used to it and am loving it! now to get enough sleep to be able to function properly! :-) I ...

i Think it's time...

To go on a trip! I was thinking that i needed to get out my suitcase to pack to go on the camping trip and all of a sudden realized how odd it felt to be getting it out....and thinking back to camping trips before how it didn't feel so odd to get packed up....well, i suppose that means i've been working too much and not going places anymore! ha ha! This summer i may get a few excursions in here and there...but not sure yet if i will or not.....i am going to LA for 10 days, but there are a few other places to go too..... i mean i need to put my suitcases to use right?! :-) it's definitely time! ha ha! in other news...this weekend is the end of school....graduation....etc! I have to milk this evening because one of the sons of the guy I milk for is graduating....and the mama usually milks and she wondered if i would for her...i get the next 3 days off...so i'm milking tonight... I have 2 more weeks at the store...and 3 weeks till i go to LA... In the mean time there is GA...
