Spring Beauty (Claytonia virginica)

We have an area in our yard where these grow pretty abundantly every spring. Pretty little flowers with 5 petals and 5 stamens. The stamens start out standing and then lie down, one on each petal. The flowers are a few inches from the ground.

Always a sure sign that spring has arrived.

@Computeforloot It's from Zork. I played it on minicomputers at work in the early '80s. My kids loved it later on a VIC-20.

@frobozz @Computeforloot Many years ago when I was the editor of mytreo.net, I interviewed Marc Blank, the developer behind Zork. Fascinating guy.

@AlliFlowers @frobozz @Computeforloot I used to work with Stu Galley and he was one of the Founders of InfoCom. Nice dude too!

@AlliFlowers @ParanoidFactoid @frobozz me too!! A couple weeks ago I pulled the Z-Code files from my Lost Treasures of Infocom for Windows, to my MacBook Pro - downloaded a z-code interpreter called Yazmin and now I can play all the Infocom games on my Macs
