hic jacet Sunflower, II - Community Center

Have you noticed the sunflowers all about town? Post Sunflower Day, natch. Do you think they are mocking us and our delusions/pretensions about summoning them for specific events. They keep their own timetable, based more on rains than wishing & druthers. The more than the usual rains this year started late, so the sunflowers germinated late.

Sunflower Day venues & Broadway storefronts made up by supplying their own sunflowers.

Thanks Vanessa!
Yes, the sunflowers came on late...at least they came! I am thinking, the only plant life here that NEVER fails to produce, rain or drought, are those buffalo gourds that always show up along the roadside. Hummm.....Buffalo Gourd Folk Art Day (grin).
