    Rudbeckia Hirta is the Latin name, but most folks around here call them "Black Eyed Susans". Pretty, aren't they? But have you ever stopped to smell one and looked at it closer?

    No, I mean closer. C'mon in a little bit.

    Yes, retirement will do that! Cuts down the watch budget, though. :-)

    Now that I am also retired, out of the rat-race, and with time to smell the flowers, I developed an allergy to polens. One never knows what life throws at you. I have to stick to my IWCs. No allergy here. :-)

    I'll say again. I have to stick to my IWCs. No allergy here. Emphasis on my No white dials there for sure. :-)
