I'm having fun with this weeks photo sharing lesson. I think I could spend all day just looking at all the pictures that have been posted. I decided to share my two favorites. Of course this one and the one I have in another post. I like flowers and I've planted them every year in my garden. This is the one flower that I haven't tried but I'm going to try for the following reason.

I've lived in Kansas all my life but it wasn't until this summer that I saw my first field of sunflowers. It was a wonderful sight. My grandparents were farmers so I'm very used to seeing fields of corn, milo, and wheat. Both of my grandparents have passed away but I think they would have got a kick out of my enjoyment from those sunflowers. They would be the first to give me seeds and offer any advice that they had and that I would need to see them grow.

Wow, do I remember this night. You didn't need to be a student to enjoy the sweet victory that started the celebration. I didn't go downtown to celebrate but did watch the masses on the television. You could just feel the excitement. The next day we all stumbled in to work. Even though most of us did not get much sleep we were full of energy. This win dominated our conversations every where we went. I was in a store in Topeka a few days latter when a fellow fan spotted me in my National Championship shirt. This man and I stood and talked for a long time about our love of the game and the team. We both agreed that the "real" game had been between KU and North Carolina and with that win we had proven ourselves as National Champions. It was just icing on the cake for us to win the final game!
