Rock Flowers
What a beautiful illustration of finding strength through adversity. Just saw a neat biography on Dale Earnhardt. Great racer who grew up lean and mean. Some how the dirt track was just as important as the asphalt for Mr. Earnhardt. He almost gave up racing at first, I discovered. he had lost his dad to a heart attack. Success came later. he himself died in a crash in 91 I think it was. And now his son carries on the tradition. I know it is strange t compare Flowers with NASCAR. I guess it was the idea that unlikely terrain can give rise to heroes and beauty.
