Wildflowers by the River

Wildflowers and meadow grass along a river always evoke a sense of calm. I found this while walking along the banks of the Batsto river. This was a famous site during the revolutionary war. The rich iron ore of the river was a key ingredient in cannon balls. Because of this an entire village and production facility grew around the river.
