You sure would be a happy camper living here,I've been fighting these vines for almost 24 years now. And our 4 miles of 3 dirt roads to our driveway looked just like that picture.

But it was pretty now that people are moving in more some trees are gone.

We took the camper there a couple times. We usually went north or south to see the area. I liked Edisto Island real well. Never mind that was near Charelston.

@rusty that's a cute little grandson ya got there. Congratulations!

Someone posted a photo and info about Quanah Parker. His mother was white and abducted by Comanche Indians as a child. She lived with them many years and became the wife of the Comanche Nokoni tribe's chief.
The Texas Rangers captured her and she spent the last 10 years of her life longing for her family. She tried escaping to return to her Comanche family but failed. She eventually stopped eating and died of starvation.
Lots of interesting history in so many areas of the U.S.

One of my relatives was Jim Baker, a scout for Lewis and Clark. Because of some disagreement he quit along the trail and walked off. He ended up marrying a NA. He was Irish and had bright red hair. I bet their kids stood out.

There's some stories in our family of Amish children abductions by indians. One in particular stands out, lived with them a long while, was "rescued", and didn't want to go home.

These things are blooming , behind the shed, where we had all those trees cut last year. Wife says they're Naked Ladies.
We don't know where they came from.

We call those surprise lilies. We have a small patch of them, Beautiful greenery in the spring that dies back to nothing. The surprise the blooms just appear one day. Mine hasn't popped up yet this year. My moms has already came up and mostly gone away again.

 

[phideaux]

Yep, the green growth , leaves , then just a stem with a blossom on top.
They are pretty.

I had never saw them before till a few years ago when my great uncle passed. He had some blooming at the time. Mother was flipping out over them, remembered them from her childhood. I searched for quite a while before I found bulbs anywhere. Got both of us some.
They are pretty

Thye raise buffalo here and I feel bad for them it is too hot and humid for buffalo in FloridaIMO>

They are well taken care of here. They are checked by a vet twice a year and have hundreds of acres for roaming. There are several ponds and a stream flowing through the acreage. This area has never been farmed, still natural prairie grass.

You can't imagine how large these bills are , until you have stood face to face within 3' of one.
They are giants.
