I didn't even know there were sunflower fields near my house. I was happy to find them though or it would have been cow pastures without the cows.

Default Assignment: 10 Minutes from home

I just discovered this website and this is the first time for me to take part in the assignment.

I decided to drive 10 minutes from home in a direction I rarely if ever take. I was afraid I would end up by the landfill but a lucky road appeared that took me away from the landfill just in time to see what looks like a starving horse.

It was late in the day and I attempted to catch the sunset as well. I think the horse shot is a bit more interesting though. This is the sunset for any who are interested in it.

Less than 10 minutes from home ;-)

In the summer I work for a couple of display fireworks shows as a pyrotech so this is pretty darn close to what I would call home :-)
