Village Flowers, Pt. 1

We took a stroll and checked out some flowers around the neighborhood.

Hideaway Village, in the Buzzards Bay part of Bourne.

This website takes me from Swansea to Quincy and from Wellfleet to Brockton, but sometimes we just Stay Local.

Not only did we stay in the village for this article, and not only have we not left our own street yet, but we haven't gotten 20 feet from my house, and the next few pictures also are in that range.

Windy Hill Road has a flower war going on. It's a friendly war, as the neighbors help each other out with water and advice. It's like one of those blocks where one guy goes nuts with the Christmas lights, a neighbor follows suit, and a third neighbor lights up just for the spirit of it. Shoot, even that hack stoner journalist got out and planted a Coleus or three.

Getting the OY in our ROY G. BIV flower color spectrum.

"An idealist is one who, upon noticing that roses smell better than cabbage, assumes that they also make better soup." H.L. Mencken

Still on Windy Hill Road, btw..

We used him in a previous article, but we'll use him again because he friggin' rules.

I'm not 100% sure that we still aren't on Windy Hill Road... or some variation of it.

I think that this is technically on Windy Hill Road, even though it isn't on a road.

We went off our street for this one, bringing a 4077th touch to Bourne.

We actually strolled the whole neighborhood. If there was some big geek in your yard last week with a camera, c'est moi..

The first time that I ever saluted a flowerpot.

We have more pics, but that's why this article has a "Part. 1" in the title.
