Several fine sketches (along with many photographs, as well) emerged from our time atop Panola Mountain. Below are a few of them: a pine branch in pencil by one of the participants, and a flowering crossvine, atamasco lily, and diamorpha by Valerie Hayes.
Below are a several of the plants I saw blooming during our visit, as captured by a basic point and shoot Kodak EasyShare digital camera. The first two are crossvine
(Bignonia capreolata)
; the next two are atamasco lily
(Zephyranthes atamasco)
; the deep yellow flower is yellow jessamine
(Gelsemium sempervirens)
; below that is the Ohio spiderwort ("officially" known in the vernacular as bluejacket, or more officially as
Tradescantia ohiensis)
; and the bottom photograph shows the fringe tree in flower
(Chionanthus virginicus)
.

Hey, Clifford. I especially like the close ups of the flowers and Valerie's drawings. It looks like you have found a wonderful home that suits you to a T.
Best wishes from the Sonoran Desert,
