Fields of Gold

Issue number 5,234 of Bruce and Annie's travels...in which we find a field of sunflowers while meandering in Bertie County NC near the Chowan River. I was so excited to see a field of them that I ran out of the car.  The Chowan was named by explorers in 1584. Wikipedia tells me that it is one of the three oldest surviving place names in America.
Aren't they just the friendliest flower with their faces turned to the sun and so useful with tasty seeds?
And our lovely state road ended here...
at the Chowan River.

What a spectacular late weekday afternoon!
