Ward Meyer recognized the flower pot attached to the sign at the G&T One Stop in Victor - but instead of taking credit, he reminded me that I was supposed to be there to photograph a hardy little flower that was growing out of the concrete nearby. Unfortunately, if only a few people recognized a flower pot that many drive past every single day, no one at all was going to recognize a tiny flower growing out of the concrete.
Ward, however, wasn’t alone - Ryan Seip recognized (it is, indeed! Thanks for the note) as did Jeanne Kochuyt - well, actually she didn’t... her husband saw me taking the picture. They both get credit, regardless. And, as always, it’s great to hear from you, Jeanne.
This week we have a scene that if you close your eyes you can almost see Floyd the Barber sitting down and trading gossip with Aunt Bee, Howard Sprague or Andy.
Where in East Iowa is this?
