horrid florid

This is probably a horrible cliche.

OTOH, I feel sympathetic to that flower. Should have snapped this a day earlier when two of her buddies were blooming along with her.

Checked out a bit of the County Fair before work. Both a lot of joy and sadness. It just isn't what it use to be back when the rural economy was better.

I'm at work now. Looking out of the window and watching those blackish rain clouds blow by.
