Around the Garden

My apologies for being in my stealth mode. It wasn't by choice. My "fun" computer kinda went kaput on me and had to be admitted. My office computer is like Fort Knox..it won't even let me see my own pictures, and it nearly had disk failure when I tried to sign in here. So, I'm using my husband's computer just to drop in and update a little. When not working, I've been spending a lot of time outside..it's always like a treasure hunt in my garden areas..I never know what will surprise me from one day to the next. I walked right by these beautiful Clematis this week. One day there was just one bloom, and now there are many. These really are as big as they look here.
Stella de Orro lilies. I have masses of these this year, but these are the first ones to wake up.
See the little spot of bright pink down there? They are so bright pink they almost look irradescent.
One morning there was only one of these blooming, and now I think there must be at least a dozen..
More later..I've been painting my green room and trying to get things done around here for my youngest daughter's arrival tomorrow evening. She's flying in for Breanna's graduation. Where did the time go...

What a beautiful garden!! Sorry to hear about the computer. I'm going through the same thing and praying that Dell can help me fix it tomorrow. :P Agh. I'm using my daughter's computer now, much to her chagrin! Enjoy the graduation!!
