Today's Flowers: At the Top of Topsail Island

topsail

After Clyde's running-away drama, he was under house arrest, and I kept him tethered to me whenever we ventured out. Getting used to life down where he lives it, I discovered some pretty nice things grow close to the ground. These yellow flowers towered over him, and they were lovely. He and I came across them when we revisited the scene of the crime (possibly) at the top of Topsail Island.

I remember spending many fun summers at a Topsail Beach in NC, many years ago.;) I am not sure it is the same place.;)
I am back from my travels dear Sandy, hope you have been well. Love the picture.;)
Have a lovely Sunday,
xoxo

OK, now I'm just guessing? Clyde is either your tiny husband, .........or a small pet of some kind? Maybe he is a caterpillar? It is good you are watching out for him, or he might get lost? I guess I missed the post about the crime? So your post becomes a mystery. But it sounds like all is well, now....and the flowers are lovely.

Sandy, I don't remember how I found your site, but I'm embarrassed to admit that I never navigated through it. Today, Sunday morning ease, I took the time and discovered your other blogs, your books, your writing.

I must compliment you on your talent and its diverse mediums. How blessed to use them so beautifully.

I'll be jumping around all of your blogs from now on. So glad I found you.
