This and That

I think I forgot to post a picture of Carold getting her Flamingo glass.

The Yucca are finally in bloom. Isn't it amazing that such an ugly plant can have such beautiful blooms.

One thing New Mexico has is gorgeous sunsets.

Not much going on here - we've had some rain which keeps the temperatures cool and comfortable. Just wanted to post so everyone knows I'm still alive and kicking.

My oldest sister has a green thumb. On the farm, which she still lives by herself now, she still has flowerbeds everywhere outside and potted plants like a jungle inside. Back to my point. She had a Yucca plant in the yard that had been there ever since I could remember when I was growing up. I think it finally bloomed after around 20 yrs. Then it went nuts! Not sure if it takes the plant that long to bloom or what the deal was, but it was beautiful and so exotic for the mid west.
