Lilies

It's the last day of July. Sore ribs or not, Plotnik is enjoying the lilies in the garden this year.

The white ones and the pink stargazers have replaced the fading red and smaller pink ones. The daylilies are still going and there's another tall batch of lilies ready to pop -- color unknown so far.

The poppies pooped out early. The wind blows the flowers off the stems so they're pretty much useless. Snow peas are finished but Tuscan Kale and snap peas are still doing well.

There's no doubt about it -- having a sore body means having a sore brain. Plotnik was grumpy yesterday, and he's only marginally merrier today. Better to talk about flowers than big bullies dropping bombs on children.
