INVITATION IX 



The wild flower and fern is only to be truly 

 known where it creeps, clings or sways untroubled 

 in its home. If you may not follow the trail 

 either afoot, awheel or on horseback, spare an 

 idle hour to look with the eye of the mind and 

 the camera at a few of the flowers and ferns in 

 their haunts.
