The flower list we made came to 73 different flowering plants that we named! A few of them are definitely the show-offs of the flower meadow: Blue Camas, Prairiesmoke, Larkspur, Shooting Star, Penstemon and Indian Paintbrush. I don't have any more great stories to tell, just that Lynn and I were wandering around in awe, wearing out our cameras, and sighing a lot. We probably covered 2 miles the whole day. Blue Camas:

Prairiesmoke:

| Look at those curly-cues! |
Larkspur--we decided that this was really the "flower of the day" because of its abundance and size!
Shooting Stars
Here's what they look like when they get pollinated and the flower is done:
And here is a Shooting Star hug for you:
