Things To See In The City Of Mums

That's what Lubbock used to be, the City Of Mums. Chrysanthemums. People had them planted all over, especially around the Tech campus. You'd find the mums in the local parks. Much was made of mums. At this time of year, the mums would begin to bloom and, well... not much else happened. But it was mums. Where that mum thing came from I do not know. I guess Lubbock wanted to be famous for something. Why not mums? 

I'm not showing you any mums. I haven't seen a mum around here in a month of mumdays.

So many things have changed! And will change!
