the flower man collects everything he finds and puts it on his house, which is near the university of houston. when you come to visit, he will wander outside and talk to you about his house and show you things--the dollhouses, the torn baby pools, the chickens, the empty bottles, the cookie monster swinging from the anarchy penguin. here, shaun and i find a rearview mirror on his fence, and take a picture. behind us, you can see most of the house.

oh, and he has flowers, too.
