72. grow flowers on public property

They were pink cosmos and they grew like oaks. The spot I chose was a little square of dirt and weeds in front of Klassy's Bakery where I happened to be working. (Yes, it was still public property - caught between public sidewalk and an alleyway, it couldn't be claimed by anyone.) By the time they bloomed I had quit and moved out of town, but I saw them once afterward and they were glorious. My benefactor for this episode was Janelle, who sprouted the plants from seed and gave them to me when they were ready for transplant.
