Sunny Sunflowers

In a field between Charleston and Savannah there is a field of bright sunflowers.

I had to stop and get a few pictures of them!
Bright splashes of yellow bobbing and swaying in a green sea

Worth driving out there to see them if you like cheerful sunflowers!

Oh I could use visiting a field of sunflowers right now! Those are just beautiful! I really enjoyed seeing the streets of Charleston in your last couple of posts. I love that alley. I would love to ride in one of those carriages through the streets too! Wonder if I can talk Poppy into visiting Charleston??

When we lived in Spain, 70-73, while DH was in the US Navy, we would see fields of sunflowers and they were always wonderful to see.

Thanks for the memory resurfacing and have a great week.

OH how I love Sunflowers... Great pictures. M daughter-in-law and son 'grow' them --and I always enjoy seeing them when we visit them in GA... We also love seeing them when we go to Biltmore (Asheville, NC)..

Thanks for sharing, Debbi.

Hugs,

Gorgeous sunflowers - I love them! I planted some but the critters ate them down to the ground within a day or two.

I love sunflowers! For about 20 years, I had a sunflower-theme kitchen. I probably had 100 different things sunflower...pictures, pottery, canisters, wallpaper border, etc. Stupid me, in 2014, I decided I wanted a different look, so I took all the sunflowers down, put up a new wallpaper border, and bought new stuff. Alas, in less than a year, I found myself wishing I hadn't done away with the sunflowers. I missed their bright cheery faces so much.

Your photo reminded me of that beautiful kitchen.

Blessings,
Patti

Tonight's Micromoon--we watched it rise over the Battery tonight, it was red and orange

Skywatchers in Central, Mountain and Pacific time zones will get a view of the full moon tonight (Sept. 13) at 11:32 p.m., 10:32 p.m. and 9:32 p.m., respectively, while East Coasters will see the moon at its fullest at 12:32 a.m. on the 14th. Regardless of time zone, the moon will appear just a bit dimmer than usual (eerie!), because it will be at apogee, or its farthest distance from Earth. That means that the moon will appear about 14% smaller and 30% dimmer than when it is at its closest point to Earth, which is known as perigee. (Livescience.com)

LETS END KILLER WHALE CAPTIVITY!!

Please research the captive killer orcas that the SEAWORLD franchise holds captive. It is animal cruelty at it's worst. Those killer whales need to be FREE, NOT HELD CAPTIVE BY us humans and forced to do 'tricks' for our amusement. (and to make SEAWORLD a lot of money. ) Please go watch BLACKFISH when y'all have time okay? also read "Killer at Seaworld". You will learn so much and I doubt if you ever pay entrance fees to enter SEAWORLD or any of it's affiliate parks again.........because you will learn what the money really goes for........PROFIT. Their profit...........the poor whales gain nothing. But life captivity. Sad lonely lives in bathtub size enclosures where they cant even interact with their own pods and offspring normally. Many of them are so sick and die very painful deaths.The 'breeding' program is a joke. They are not even allowed to procreate in a natural and normal manner. The whales that were caught in the wild were taken from their pods and their mothers in a very cruel and inhumane fashion---it is heartbreaking. It's awful sad. Please research and then let me know what you think, okay? Whales are magnificent creatures, I love them. I tell everybody it's okay to love them and to want to go see them......but please go to areas where you can view them in the wild either from the beaches or cliffs or from boats. Not from cement swimming pools where they are mis-treated, gawked at, and forced to 'perform'. God created them and intended for them to exist in the seas! They really need to remain free........................
