I have no idea what kind of plant/flower/weed this is, but here are 5 Random Facts I DO know:
1. Sometimes I have to mow.
Mostly when my wife or neighbors complain.
2. Mowing gives me time to think, to contemplate the universe.
3. I think about how much I hate driving in circles cutting grass.
4. Sometimes I come across a flower or weed that I think is just too interesting to mow, and I stop to take a photo of it.
5. Once I stop, I stop for good.
You can find a lot more RANDOM 5-ness at A Rural Journal.
Years ago I told my husband I would like to have the job of mowing the lawn. The first time out a snake whizzed by me and that was the end of my mowing. My husband knew it wouldn't last but he does always humor me.
ReplyDeleteFunny random facts and I love your illustrations! Thanks so much for joining in this week Tracy.
ReplyDeleteI have cut grass in the past however when the circles over lapped I was fired, that was okay with me. This is a handsome weed and fine photo.
ReplyDeleteI love the weed, no idea what it is. I leave weeds that are pretty, and my husband points them out to me. Lol. On the other hand, i've been known to pull out 'good' plants. Lol
ReplyDeleteI don't know what that weed is either, but it's rather interesting and so is your blog. This is my first time visiting but I popped around and read several of your posts. Fun stuff.
ReplyDeletemy father was very particular about how i would mow as a kid. never the way each week. we had a big yard & used a riding mower ... i love it when Dad was not around because i could do it the way i pleased. ( :
