Those sure look like the Cosmos I planted, they self seed nicely. Pretty shade of pink.

I think they are cosmos as well. Wind flowers are a spring bloomer aren't they? I've never grown wind flowers so I'm not sure.

Could be...I know little about flowers.

You don't need to know the proper name Beekissed. Whatever you want to call them, they are still beautiful.

You know enough to grow the pretty ones. That's all you need to know. Anything more is the beginning of a flower addiction.

Today, on my daily walk, I was looking for something to photograph, then it dawned on me that the road itself was worth photographing. I guess many of us take the road less traveled in life.

Indeed it does look less traveled. Looks like somewhere I would love to explore.

I love country roads at this time of the year. Put gravel in that road and that's what our driveway looks like. Beautiful pic!!!!

Red,
The sides of the road have miles of ancient stone fences. The people who settled the area must have spent the greater portion of their lives pulling stones from the ground in an attempt to farm this area. Even off the beaten path, deep in the woods, there are old stone fences as property boundaries I guess. There is an old cemetery with a guy buried with his wife on one side of him, and his consort on the other side.

A few minutes after I took the photo, the wind came up and it snowed like heck. I like to froze by the time I finished my walk. New York, you gotta love it.
