Yesterday morning Vann, Sophie, and I went for a drive looking for wisteria to photograph. It's absolutely glorius this year. All down Hwy. 119, which runs from Leeds to Greystone and beyond, trees hang heavy with it. We found a secluded dirt road where old homeplaces and farms once stood, and here the wisteria was at its finest. I took lots and lots of photos. It was such a beautiful place, I didn't want to go home.
We dubbed the road Wisteria Way and the area Hobbit Woods. We even found a Hobbit house, which at first we mistook for just an old hollow tree that had fallen. It was a magical experience, and even though we never saw and actual Hobbit or Fairy, we did see a little green creature who stood quite still for a while so that I could photograph him.

What lovely wisteria! It's one of my favorite flowers; when I lived in Charleston, in the spring I could smell it everywhere. And the old stump, too . . . it cries out for a small person to live in it.

What a beautiful place! I'm sure a hobbit lives there...I think I can see him hiding in the Wisteria. Wisteria Way sounds like a bit of heaven to me.
