Absurd? Yes. Funny? Sometimes. Current? Hardly, but getting better. Useful? Rarely. I say things you may or may not agree with, but you can always say what you want too.

Wild flowers right off the freeway
These cool orange flowers are growing near an overpass on 494 North, right by where I work. I bet my Dad knows what they are.

There are only a few things they could be and I could use a close-up to tell, but the cup bearing the petals leaves me about 90% sure they are day lilies. There are two wild lilies that color in Minnesota: a variant of the wood lily found in the East from Canada to the Carolinas and the Turk's Cap where the petal curl back to the stem in a complete circle. I saw the wood lily blooming on Monday, but I still think these are day lilies which pepper the landscape and often tell of a place that once was one's homestead.
