Where I Stand Sunday

Seeds of all kinds travel across the landscape

in various modes of transportation.

Lifted on the wind

carried by birds

attached to a host.

This one landed in the cracks of the concrete of the parking pad. It came from a seed from the dead head of last years crop that was sitting outside the fence for several days last year. Ornamental sunflowers need more TLC, than this one has been getting. Garden and plants didn't fair too well this year...hubster couldn't take care of it all while I was gone and we had enlarged the vegetable garden twofold. We have lots of yellow squash though. Tomatoes are just beginning to turn orange. Can't wait!

Where I Stand Sunday is an ongoing photo essay examining the different places I spend my life "standing".
Too often we take for granted the everyday places we spend our lives walking on.
The ground we tread on has its own stories to tell.

Wow, how strange. We have lots of weeds and grass growing in the cracks, but no sunflowers.
