Winter daisies
Turn the corner from Gurley onto Grove. This metal daisy is blooming in the front patio of the first Victorian on your right. Too bad my camera had to look into the sun to capture the front of the "blossom" (below).
Here is another way to remind yourself that, yes, there will be a spring in a few months. Metal flower at Watters.
Also at Watters, my favorite of the lot: a sunflower umbrella, tho it's actually Big -- bumbershoot size, suitable for a proper gentleman to carry. If he dared.

I want that umbrella!
But no one much would see the flower would they, except those in high buildings... I suppose you'd see the light shining through it.
Love that brolly.

That's a one of a kind umbrella.
More flowers!
Me thinks this is Granny J's mental preparation for winter. LOL
