Hi Dear Folk,
Bowman's Hill Wild Flower Preserve, is not far from New Hope, PA. It certainly is worth a visit. From us is a little less than an hours drive. I went a couple of Wednesday ago with my friend Janice. We had a wonderful day, taking a guided tour in the afternoon. Her favourite woodland flower is Jack In The Pulpit I remember as a child my dad's mum, had a whole dinner service with the Jack In The Pulpit pattern on them.
Just a mile up the road is the Bowman's Tavern and Restaurant. We had asked our guide to recommend a local restaurant. We both had Ruben's which I would recommend because they cure and smoke their own meat, it was delicious. Would definitely go again, I think Mr. B. would like it.
After, we drove on down to New Hope and spent a little time there, finishing off with ice-creams. I saw a beautiful inlaid necklace in a very modern style crafted by a Zuni crafts person, but the price tag was over $2,000, so I enjoyed looking and of course the guy tried it on me and I thought he would never take it off me, but that's their ploy, but no ploy would make me spend $2,000 on a necklace.
This is the preserve. Next time we'll backpack a little picnic, or at least snacks.

A lovely day! One of may favorite parks.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos of an amazing walk. It was a joy to visit.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place. Wow $2000 for a necklace! I'm sure you can make something beautiful for a bit less. I want a Rubens now but will have to buy the ingredients and make one as I don't know anywhere here I could get one.
