Right now in Balsam, North Carolina, the temperature is hovering around 35 degrees. Outside the sliding glass doors I can see a few flurries and the doors are rattling with the gusty winds.
Ahhhhh April, the beginning of spring. Glad I caught the photos of these Lilies of the Valley this morning.
Sheila, there are itty bitty flakes of snow falling right now! Sure makes the dogs high energy.
You may want to check my post from yesterday, it was all about YOU Mona...............LOL.
Mona, I did see on the news last night something about a NorEaster heading up the Eastern seaboard. i have to say I was so glad it wasn't coming to Denver. I've enough enough! Stay warm my friend.
Roger...when you really get to know me you'll realize it's always all about me, lol.
Belinda...looking for frost tonight...all the new blooms are already shivering.
We've had warm weather (70s) and sunny skies for several days in a row! It's heavenly!
Geesh... they look so delicate. Id be afraid the flash of the camera would damage them. :-)
Myrl, thank you so much. These Lilies of the Valley have been growing in the same place outside of the house for the entire 26 years we've lived here. I appreciate the feature. I hope your week is wonderful also.
Donna, I think our weather is headed back to the 70s in a couple of days too. I'm ready.
Hi John, that's why I didn't use the flash...I didn't want to startle them, lol.
Steve, thank you. This is a great way to start the morning. I'm glad you liked the photos.
Hi Mona,
I love the little white flowers as they look like delicate bells. I notice you have a new picture of your office manager. Looks like a very hard worker. Happy Tuesday.
Congrats on your "Featured Post".
Kristin, thanks. Sienna is such a muscular little dog and she wanted everyone to see how buff she is. Thanks for noticing. Thank you also for the congrats on the featured post. Steve keeps my ego operational.
Steve - thanks. I had to really contort to get low enough for those photos. Life would be simpler if Lilies of the Valley were taller! ;-D
Karen, thanks for giving me a reason to share. It's nice to know there is one place my ego doesn't take a beating ;-D
Nice, Mona! I planted my first lilly of the valley about 2 weeks ago. It was a scrawny little specimen - the very last at the nursery. Today was the first day both of its' poor little leaves were able to stand up on their own. Someday maybe it will be as beautiful as the ones in your photos!
Maria, you've got the "Little Lily Who Could"...you should start taking photos now and then post them as she grows into all her glory! It would make a fabulous post. Have a wonderful day.
Beautiful little flowers, Mona. I'm not sure what the temperature was here in our area today but we were at a baseball game in shorts and sleeveless tops so pretty warm! I think winter and even spring is history here for this year!
Hi DeeDee, the weather announcer last night proclaimed we would have a summery spring day today. Odd stuff, this global warming. Have a great day.
