Remember a few weeks ago when I posted the photo of the flower in the
gutter. I called it Survivor.
Here he/she (most flowers are both male and female) is for another look. in
all her glory. HYPERLINK
"http://tinyurl.com/6locg7"http://tinyurl.com/6locg7 Survivor was doing
great the past few weeks. Weather has been getting cooler, a few rain
storms, and of course the neighbors walking by (or riding bikes in our case)
were sparing some water for him/her.
Well, today survivor met the street sweeper. Needless to say, a street
sweeper is stronger than a poor gutter plant. Survivor was stripped of all
his/her beautiful blossoms. HYPERLINK
"http://tinyurl.com/62c4xm"http://tinyurl.com/62c4xm I don't think there is
enough growing season left for him/her to make a comeback. And I won't be
around long enough to find out, as I'll be heading out Tuesday for about 2
months to drive the Oregon and California coasts, then head back through
Utah to see canyons and arches before heading across Utah, Nevada and
California to end up in Yosemite for some fall colors. Poor survivor will
have to make it on his/her own. Until then, we will stop on our bike ride
and encourage survivor on. Fight the good fight until winter comes.
