Arabia Mountain- spring bloom!

My good friend Mike was in town and I took the day off, so Mike and I along with Cassius and Odie ventured to Arabia Mountain near Lithonia and were fortunate enough to have great weather and catch a lot of the unique plants of the area in (or near) their early spring bloom.

Plenty of recent rain and snow left Arabia quite lush in places
