I posted something bright here this morning to start the day on the right foot. Bright and happy orange daylilies should make us happy. It is going to be a fine day here where we live in Canada and we are grateful as the Spring so far has been quite slow to wake up. I have been up since 5:00 A.M. and I hope I can accomplish a lot today. Wishing you the same: good weather and lots of productive moments.

@marlina lovely flowers. We have blossoming apple trees, tulips and the beginning of lilacs to cheer us.

You're right - your day lilies are a lovely sight. I've just come in from planting a few things in my garden - it's good planting weather as it's been raining but still quite warm.

I must say that it is a photo from last year, our daylilies are not ready yet.

@marlina Yes, I'm using garden photos from last year too. I don't have any flowers this year yet - as I said, I'm only just planting.

@marlina Yep, the flowers certainly does help brighten the day. I am not into having coffee when the weather is warm.

Your lilies are beautiful. I noticed the ones out in front of our building were just starting to poke green shoots out of the soil, so it will be a little while before we have blooms.

I love lilys. These yellow lilys grow all over here when the weather gets warmer. They make beautiful vases for the tables when picked. None are growing here yet but they will within a month I think.

Those lilies look pretty. Ours are quietly disappearing although they did make their presence felt whole of last month.

It's raining and pretty cold, perfectly normal because this is the first day of the so called "three ice Saints" days. The days of May 11, May 12, and May 13 are known as "the black-thorn winter", because those days of spring were noted to bring a brief spell of colder weather in many years.

I think spring flew past and we are now in summer. or perhaps it was winter we skipped.

Good morning, I appreciate your bright picture to being my day today. I hope that you have a wonderful day, I'm hoping for the very same. I get off of work at 2 this afternoon, so I'll have lots of time to get other things done. Getting a haircut is on my list.
