The first thing I did this morning, after opening the door for the cats to go out, was open windows throughout the house. Because at 530 AM it was cooler outside than in, for the first time in many days.
It was also raining, and I got absolutely soaked doing chores. I usually do come in dripping these days, but this time it was mostly rainwater instead of sweat, so it was sort of enjoyable.
A package had been "delivered" roadside last night, so before starting goat chores I trundled down with my little cart to fetch it up before the wet cardboard got any wetter.
So I got to see this:
This daylily is my favorite, and has survived the rigors of the bank garden by the lower driveway for many years. For at least five years now (maybe ten) I've thought it needs to be dug up, separated into multiple plants, and planted in more locations. For it's own good. The only thing holding me back is a fear of killing it.
But now it is being crowded beyond what I can change in it's present location, and challenged by the increasing shade of a growing tree. This will be the year.
Wish me luck. Send advice.
