Willy Nilly Friday 5, Sky Watch Friday, and Floral Friday Photos

1. The Tupelo Farmers Market
Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, August 22, 2017
What to do with an old truck? Plant flowers in it! This planting and mural is at the Tupelo Farmers Market.

The Farmers Market is the place to visit if you want local grown food. In addition to basic garden produce, you can buy cut flower bouquets, home-made bread, jam, jelly, and honey.
I bought purple-hull peas there on Tuesday.

2. Elvis
Tupelo, Mississippi, USA, August 19, 2017
I found three more 'Tribute to Elvis' sculptures.

3. Soybean Field (Sky Watch Friday)
Pickwick, Tennessee, USA, August 17, 2017
I think the proper term for this is a Center Pivot Irrigation System, but I just call it 'The Monster!'
Our weather continues to be very hot (95F, 35C) with occasional afternoon thunderstorms.
For more information on this type of crop irrigation: Wikipedia article.

4. Fish?
Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, August 24, 2017
I was eating breakfast yesterday when I glanced up and saw a fish on my wall! I think it must be a reflection from one of my wind chimes hanging on the porch (but none of them are fish).

5. Rose of Sharon (Floral Friday Fotos)
Prentiss County, Mississippi, USA, August 23, 2017
Here in the United States, Rose of Sharon usually refers to Hibiscus syriacus (not a rose, but a large shrub). In other parts of the world, Rose of Sharon may refer to an entirely different plant.

Remember to say a prayer for those along the Texas coast in the path of Hurricane Harvey

Have a wonderful week-end!

  8. Love the fish! Yes, the storm is worrisome. Recently we saw a Weather Channel program about the hurricane that hit Galveston a few years ago. Very scary!
