We were not even sure they were the typical Mountain Laurel normally seen in the mountains of North Carolina and Virginia that grow along the Appalachian and Blue Ridge Mountains. After doing some research, we found they certainly were one and the same. Some information we found here. There are many wild flowers, herbs, and berr...

Our Little Mountain Cabin: WILDCRAFTING

We have access to more Jewelweed than we could ever use growing along the stream bank. It blooms during the months of May through October and that is when I find it to be most effective when using it for poison ivy or other skin irritations. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

http://ourlittlemountaincabin.blogspot.com/p/craft.html
While it took some time to decide where to build the cabin, we sure enjoyed the little visitors among us. They came around to say hello while building (a lot more on building the cabin to come soon). We camped in our trusty tent and had many nocturnal visitors. A lot of visitors through out the day too! Here are a couple of pictures of our friends in the woods:. A Screech Owl checking us out in the evening! Blue Butterflies migrating through the hollow! A Salamander coming out of the wood pile!
