Wildflower weekend starts tomorrow (Sat) at Starved Rock. There are going to be a ton of people from all over to take the free guided hikes along the trails. Hikers will be at the visitor center in the park at 9am and 1pm.

I'll be pouring wine for guests at Cattails Wine Tasting Room at the corner of Routes 6 & 178.

On Sunday, Bikers Rule, when they rally at the Starved Rock parking lot for the Blessing of the Bikes at noon & 1:30pm.

It's going to be a wild weekend.

Beautiful day--can't wait to see what it holds in store for me: rain glistening on freshly budding leaves, wild flowers emerging from the long winter chill, muddy trails and rushing waterfalls framed by slowly dissipating morning fog.
