Contentment by design - Living

Over the course of the first couple of years we lived here, we made pathways from wood chips, mostly from trees we've thinned out as part of our fire mitigation work. And each year after the wild grasses have finished growing to full height, I use a string trimmer to open up the pathways again.

Today as I was doing this, I came across a beautiful flower right in the middle of the pathway. I showed it to Garima, who told me it is a Mariposa Lily, which grows from a bulb, so it should come back each year.

Needless to say, we have permanently nudged the pathway to go around this beautiful wildflower!
