Laurel Run Park Guided Wildflower HIke

Finally a break in this horrendously cold, wet spring weather allowed for a few of us to participate in a wildflower hike at Laurel Run Park.  This off the beaten path park is the setting for a spectacular array of wildflowers.  And you don't have to go far to seem them.  You will see them as you drive into the park as they are sprinkled all over the hillside to your right.  Bays Mountain naturalist, Bob, gave us a tour around to examine and photograph the wildflowers.  We saw many species.  We didn't get a lot of traditional hiking in today, but we learned a lot about our native wildflowers.
