The cow corral where the cows are milked.
Even though my most favorite flower is the carnation , I can't help but love sunflowers too.
Here I am with a HUGE sunflower (with no petals though). I bought this for $2 and my plan is to plant the seeds! Wish me luck because I'm terrible with plants.
If you are wondering where in the heck are we--well, we are in Fair Oaks, IN, hmmmm maybe about 50 or 60 miles from the Chicago area.

This is basically a dairy farm and while driving to Louisville, we saw a sign that said, "We dairy you to stop and visit!"
Then a few miles later, a sign that said, "We double dairy you to stop and visit."
Well. . . I'm not one to NOT take a double dairy, so we stopped. OMG, we were there for over 3 hours! It was soooooooooooooooo much fun but I was very surprised to find out that milk doesn't magically appear in cartons or bottles in the grocery stores--that milk actually comes from cows!!!! Who knew?
I just love these dark sunflowers!!!
We ended our visit with a stop at the gift shop of course and we each bought a bottle of their milk. As we continued our drive to Louisville, we ate the rest of our Dunkin' Donuts (my favorite, with any and all donuts a close second) and washed it all down with some milk. The ONLY way this could have gotten better was if, at the next exit, there was a Taco Cabana! :} We are both going through Mexican food withdrawal.
