I Just Couldn't Do It.



Yesterday worked out to be a good day to mow the lawns after nearly one week of rain showers. As I was mowing the back yard, I noticed this grouping of flowers down the small hill and into the yard. The more I mowed, the more it bothered me that I would have to make the decision of chopping them up under the passing lawn mower or saving them in spite of where they were located. As you can see, they breathed a sigh of relief as I worked around them, sparing them the same fate as the grass. I just couldn't do it.

Johnny: I mean, what did those wee flowers ever do to me?! ;-)

Bless you for going around them - they are QUITE lovely. Purple cyclamen is what they appear to be. How I'd love to have some of those to mow around!

Enjoy.

Greg: I thought they were, as well. Mowing around them on a riding lawnmower made it interesting. ;-)
