Paul and Rebecca Jones said...: wow. That is beautiful.; 10:19 PM
Stephanie said...: It's funny...still to this day whenever I see sunflowers, I think of you.; 10:48 PM
Miss L said...: Those are awesome pictures, my friend. And how beautiful they look from (in my best Bob Barker voice), "Your New Car!" :); 11:16 PM
Anonymous said...: Gorgeous! Anywhere near Kansas City? I wanna see. :); 4:40 PM
Karla said...: Is it your blog site that you use or how do you get your photos to have that white border with the curled edges? Love the photos of the flowers.; 11:35 PM
Karla said...: I guess the edges aren't exactly curled but have the shadow going on.; 11:36 PM
Mari said...: Cool. People would pay money to see that. Or, they could see a goat, chained to a post outside a small shack made of wooden pallets on the side of the road. That's what my sister and I saw driving through Ohio valley farmlands at 5:00am to a summer job we desperately needed but hated. We named the goat Toro because all he did was eat grass. Good ole Toro...; 2:15 AM
