An Amber Wave of Decorative Grass

With the Daytona 500 under a red flag rain delay, 

I took the opportunity to walk to the store 

for some groceries. Quite a bit of the snow has melted,

revealing trash and muddy ground all around. 

Other than the bare trees, just about the only graceful 

thing standing is the decorative grass planted

in various spots. Here, backed by plowed mounds 

of dirty snow, the afternoon sun shown through

the fluffy plumes near the supermarket.
