Now He's Gone


Hello most humans and many others,

Well, I must report that Mr. Sunflower is gone. It looks somewhat like a crime scene on a CSI show.

The other day when we awakened, his stalk was broken from where he had been rooted. His stalk was hanging off the ground because his neck was caught between the slats of the wooden fence with his huge head on the other side of the fence. His leaves were stripped!

Missy Linda can't solve the mystery of whether it was squirrels, or maybe, raccoons. She doubts that a squirrel could have pulled the huge head through the fence like that. However, some of those squirrels look pretty pumped. It did happen either at night or early enough in the morning for Missy Linda to see it when she arose. (It would not be hard to be that early these days!) Missy Linda has trouble winding down after she works the night shift, so because she is awake late, she doesn't get up too early nowadays.

Who do you all think murdered Mr. Sunflower?
