Driving through North Dakota

We drove straight through North Dakota stopping only for a picnic on the side of the road at sunset. I wish I would have got a picture because the sunset was magnificent and there were monarchs flying around us.

I was shocked that after we drove through the mountains into the flat areas that we were greeted with miles and miles of sunflowers growing in fields along the side of the road. I beamed thinking of my friend, Linda, from Global Peace Initiatives here in Indianapolis planting sunflowers in inner cities.

Driving through the sunflowers was a joy I will never forget.
