I planted two sunflowers in my garden this season. One got completely destroyed by a bad hailstorm. The other survived, but was in really rough shape; it had only two sets of very tattered leaves toward the top. The rest were stripped off. It's now about 8'4" tall and the main head has bloomed.

I got interrupted walking my dog by either a bigot or a paid petition signature collector (one or the other) a couple of days ago. A different one showed up at my door today. They want to amend the state constitution to "keep girls sports for girls."
