In a shady glade in an old abandoned homestead, somewhere in Connecticut my friend a trucker was taking a construction bypass leading down the main road of a deserted town. Shady-glen the sign said. He was suddenly filled with melancholy and a deep desire to take the turnoff to Shady-Glen. His 18 wheeler Mac compressor, Jostling and bouncing down the overgrown dirt road, he ended up at the rusty old gate to the Shady-Glen property.
A glance at the hole in the wall where a door once was and the entire edge to edge view of the nearby hill, seen from the gaping view of where a wall had been, too long ago instantly revealed that no one could possibly be living there. At the edge of the property between a clump of trees was this faded red Volkswagen Beetle doubling as a crowded daffodil flowerbox.

We once had such an exhibition … used cars full of flowers … on that post where you have daffodils but you cannot comment so you have no comment
That’s a wonderful idea. I’ve seen it before in the park I visit often.
Wonderful! How did you like my story about it?
The story is great. I like how some know how to use every thing to do something beautiful and interesting.
Love this one! I have seen flowers in wheelbarrows and old containers. This is great!
