The rain returned. I wasn’t able to do any work on the garden today. Yesterday I planted another fifty orange day lilies among my daffodils. I often see them along the roads here in the summer, so hope that the deer don’t like them. I don’t expect to see any flowers this year, but hope to next summer. We will see. The “mile a minute” vine is a real pain. It is invasive and overgrows everything, like kudzu in the south. I think the deer brought it here. Talking about deer, this doe was just outside my laundry room door.

This deer can’t wait for my Yucca plant to bloom with its sweet and fragrant flowers.

I had a great time while working part-time in Boulder, Colorado. Nearly every weekend I visited Rocky Mountain National Park ultimately being able experience all four seasons in the park. On this day there were lots of spring wildflowers, at least in the lower elevations. Someone told me the yellow thing that looked like flowers on a conifer tree was some type of fungus. Later during the afternoon, rain clouds came in and captured a stormy panorama.
