Everywhere I go, I see flowers! I love it! It hit me yesterday as I was driving along Cleveland, with the gorgeous hanging baskets, the white birch trees blowing, and the huge assortment of containers overflowing with flowers outside of different businesses and the Chief in the background.... our town looks incredible! Imagine what tourists must think?...
