Walk in the bluebells

forest edge native white dogwood flowering 

 We went out to Manassas to visit and got a little time on Friday April the 6th to take a two hour walk across the Bull Run Battlefield and over to the Stone Bridge for a look at the magnificent wild Virginia Blue Bells carpeting the forest floor by the creek.

pasture land is beautiful edged in native trees.
