This sidewalk crack observation was done outside my office building in Coquille, on 371 N. Adams St. My office is a the very end of a dead end street, and the road has not been well maintained. The street is very rough and the asphalt has huge cracks all through it. It's not a parking lot you would want to walk through in high heels, that's for sure. Fortunately, I am more often in tennis shoes or muck boots than heels at work these days.

| The lighter colored pavement of the sidewalk looks like brushed concrete. The darker, pebbly stuff is very old and rugged asphalt. |

Pretty sure these prickly little guys are some kind of thistle. Likely Sow thistle:

Not sure what this little guy is...it could possibly be Lady's Thumb (Persecaria maculosa), Husker red (Penstemon digitalis), northern bugleweed (Lycopus uniflorus) , or taper leaf water horehound (Lycopus rubellus.)

| This is Husker red. I think this is probably the one... |
