His creations are splendid, His settings soothing, His attention to detail beyond comparison…
[Wild Currant in bloom]
Yet he tucks them away in little unseen crannies
and scatters them lavishly on untrodden hillsides
for only the mountain climber to notice.
[tiny freckled ‘monkey flowers’]
when he chances to look down at his feet…
[Oregan grapes on the way…]
If this is how He ornaments His footstool, what must His residence be like?
One thing I have asked from the LORD, that I shall seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the LORD
And to meditate in His temple. Psalm 27:4
--LS
“And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us” Ps.90:17

So cool to see the oregon grapes in flower. I remember sucking on them while walking on a trail if I got thirsty, but I've never seen it in flower.
Yes, I was quite 'taken' with the two tone blooms. Lovely!
