This homeplace is about a mile from me. A Mrs.
Harris lived here all her life. She was called the
flower lady. She would pick flowers and take them
to town and sell them on the street corner. After I
knew her she was the age to get social security and did
not peddle in town anymore. Her old two story house
is torn down. A former politician bought her place when
she died. Mrs. Harris had no children and lived to be
past 80. You can see her work still.

One might almost see her there, bending over and looking at her flowers still.
NICE TO LEAVE SOME THING BEHIND WHEN YOU GO.
That is a very pretty place. She must have had a true green thumb!
