Where the wild flowers are

So it has been a little while since the last post, I apologize. I was going to talk about surfing and the Purdue-Notre Dame game, but I've been waiting for the sting of that loss to settle in a little bit. So that will not be mentioned in this post. Nope, I'm not even going to bring up Jimmy Clausen's touchdown pass to Kyle Rudolph with 25 seconds left in the game. It would be just plain mean to discuss that on here, so don't worry.



Anyway, I recently took a stroll through Kings Park to get some pictures of various flowers and plants and things. Not that I am into that sort of stuff at all, but I figured maybe some of you were. I think the title for this post is clever, though ironically almost all of the flowers I took pictures of were in the Botanic Garden in the park. But I mean how do you really define a wild flower anyway? Does the flower itself even know whether it is in the wild or not? I don't know but check out all the photos I took and maybe you'll find out.

Poll question: Do you think flowers in a botanical garden qualify as wild flowers?

  1. The sting has not subsided and only intensified today by our loss to Northwestern. However the best part of the day was looking at your beautiful pictures. You are becoming quite the photographer and comedian! Keep "em coming.

  2. Thanks for not saying anything about the Purdue/Notre Dame game. Oops, I guess you did slip in a little dig. Purdue Coach's motto is "We are one". He is correct. We are one and four as of today.
