Getting away from it all

Right now I'm spending a week in rural Illinois, doing some family history and cemetery research. I came at the right time because the pink dogwood (Cornus florida rubra), a common tree in these parts, is in bloom. They're striking trees, especially when you see them in the middle of the woods.



I've been camping in Siloam Springs State Park, which has some nice hiking trails. I plan to spend an afternoon hiking in the woods.

That's all I have time for at the moment...
