September 10

Late Blooms

The Yucca Tree in our front yard is blooming one month later than in previous years.
This is probably due to the unusually cool summer we have had.
According to a news report I heard, we had the coldest July since 1916.


The Monthly Challenge for September is to post 30 images about what is important to us in our lives: friends, family, hobbies, cars, boats, houses, travel, etc.
I have decided to make my PaD Gallery part of the September Challenge.

Such a beautiful plant. When we lived out west, I had one in my garden. We've had the hottest summer here! Lovely shot, Walter.
