Back-lit morning glory

The southerly path into West Park from the west.  Odd, how this part is arrow-straight,and then it begins to curve.......

Tall yellow stuff.  This is not prairie dock.  And it's not regular black-eye susans, either.

The petals hang down.....

Chicory, Queen Anne's lace, black-eyed susans, and that wispy tall white stuff.  With a rock.

Walking downtown to have lunch with my work buddies.  Downtown Home & Garden, with excellent window plantings upstairs.

These are morning glories.

There's an Au Bon Pain in the Union now, where the U. Club used to be.  Love these decorations in the Union.....

Enjoyed lunch, as always.  We barely scratched the surface of what there is to talk about.  We need to have lunch again soon!

I had to skedaddle after lunch -- I took my daughter to the airport.  She was off to Seattle (and the San Juans) to visit a high school friend.



At home.  Mud nest in my goldenrod.  I bet each of these little globs houses an infant wasp.  Each glob is about half an inch long.

Walking to yoga.  Thistles in West Park.  This many thistle seeds would feed a lot of goldfinches!
