Trillium

I love seeing the trillium I planted by my front door. The flowers are a brilliant white when they first open but change to pink as they age...the pink gets darker until they wilt and die. 

I enjoyed hiking the many trails in the Portland area and seeing the Trillium growing wild; now, I seldom go far into the woods to see the wildflowers. 

This afternoon we went to the memorial service for one of my husband's best friends; it was a lovely tribute to this wonderful longtime friend.
