Our life living off the land in our log cabin, breathing fresh mountain air, and getting back to basics.

A Sunflower, Simply Delightful!

It dawned on me today that it has been 4 months (on August 4th to be precise) that we have been living our log cabin life. How fortunate we are that all is unfolding in such a pleasant way.  I am truly grateful to be able to live this experience.  To celebrate, I bought a potted sunflower.  Only, I didn't realize why I was so drawn to it when I bought it, on the 4th, but I had to have it.  So I didn't buy it on purpose as a celebration, but I know realize that is exactly what compelled me to get it.     

I love sunflowers ~ I feel cheer-filled when I see them.  They are bright.  They are simple.  They are complex.  They are edible (the seeds, that is).   

Have you ever looked really closely at a sunflower? They are intriguing...if you click on the picture and then click on 'original size', you will see all the intricate details...









 
 



I hope you have enjoyed this journey into a sunflower.  I love them so much I have a stained glass sunflower hanging, for sunflower cheer all year round!

Thanks for reading my blog, you are the best f/f/r/s/f's, see you tomorrow,
Lise
