Today's Picture




Cumulus fractus; Cumulus humilis ("fair weather clouds")
I thought that if I have nothing to say I would post a picture and say what's on my mind visually. This picture is a plant I planted in the garden about 4 or 5 years ago. It never bloomed, ever, but this year it has decided to show itself. I remember looking at it in April when the foliage began to peek through the soil and I remember thinking that these bulbs were surely duds. I had no hope of ever seeing this beautiful flower that I planted until two weeks ago when I noticed two spikes approximately 4' tall reaching for the sky. Today they finally began to open from the bottom up - are they not lovely?

There is always hope.
