Flower power
As a slow jogger/walker, my eyes often wander to nearby properties. When energy and/or mood wane, colorful flowers and bushes are uplifting. Some yards are filled with traditional roses; other locations have surprising hybrid plants. Many days I stop to gaze at buds up close; I gain adrenaline that propels feet and mind. Kudos to residents who allocate time and money to beautify their space. Your green-thumbs have impact.
