I recently had a chance to go to the first annual Sunflower Festival at Beaver Dam Farm in a neighboring county. It was amazing to see so many sunflowers – 30 acres with around 600,000 black oil sunflowers in the fields! Set against the backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the magnificent sea of big golden flowers was beautiful and mesmerizing.
It really does make you smile to be around all those happy flowers!

It’s funny, the very comment I was about to make was how those sunflowers make me want to smile, and then I found the very same sentiment under the photographs. đŸ™‚
