I finally got back into the mountains this weekend. My escape consisted of short hikes between successive waves of cold, soaking rain. Salvation nonetheless. Photos are from multiple stops along Rt 219 and its byways, including Garrett State Forest (MD), Cranesville Swamp (WV and MD), and Cathedral State Park (WV). The hawthorns are gorgeous this time of year, not to mention the second wave of spring wildflowers now coming into bloom, including fringed polygala (Polygaloides paucifolia), dwarf ginseng (Panax trifolius), red chokeberry (Aronia arbutifolia), painted trillium (Trillium undulatum). and golden ragwort (Packera aurea).

i hope i can convince as many people as possible to transition it really is the best thing you can do for yourself. i was already a little obsessed with myself but watching myself get a little cuter each month has made it even more so. im so much happier and excited to live every day. im excited about my future. whatever happens im going to be a girl. its the best decision ive ever made, bar none. ive never been more excited about anything ever and i wish this feeling for everybody. i spent a lot of time telling myself i wasnt trans because i was scared of the process but ive literally encountered zero negatives, not that that would be true for everybody, but, hey, you just never know how great it could turn out! so idk get on hrt girl/boy

Swifts

By Anne Stevenson

Spring comes little, a little. All April it rains. The new leaves stick in their fists; new ferns still fiddleheads. But one day the swifts are back. Face to the sun like a child You shout, 'The swifts are back!' [...]

#poetry tag #;-; #they will be back in my neck of the woods soon god willing

she jack my pine (P. banksiana) till my serotinous cone's sealing resin melts at 50°C (122°F) allowing my seeds to disperse and colonize shortly following a stand-clearing fire (Larsen & MacDonald 1998).

I've gotta be real, while the person who created these comics wasn't religious, this still eats. When I was a young trans person, I never thought religion in general could accept me, and this changed my life to see, and seeing it reposted by religious folks was so comforting. While not all religions aren't the same, I was so afraid of rejection

Every time you put yourself out there, despite the possibility of rejection, you validate your courage and willingness to take risks. Embrace rejection as a form of empowerment. Your journey is one of hope, not self-shame.

There are ten trillion pictures of flowering trees to the point where they sometimes seem trite and overdone. But then you see a tree in full flower and go holy shit this rules and I've gotta show this to everyone so they can experience the same magic and wonder and there are ten trillion and one pictures of flowering trees

#:) #is that a black locust tree? it looks like a member of fabacea! #as for myself the crabapple tree in the front lawn is in full full bloom right now and smells so strong #plant tag
