The tulips are really coming into bloom. Here they are accented by the Narcissus tazetta 'Grand Primo' bulbs in a shot I took yesterday.

Monroe continues to impress me. They wrote a nice piece about my speech there a couple day ago titled "
On the Hunt."
While having dinner in Monroe, I visited with one lovely lady who was diagnosed with West Nile about 10 years ago. She had to relearn everything, including how to speak. When her grandmother was a child, the local Episcopal church burned down. Her grandmother rode her bike by the church and the men who were repairing the church asked the then young girl if she would like some of the irises that had survived the fire. She said yes and carried them home on her bike, and the irises have been in the family ever since.

The lightning lit up the sky last night in a fabulous storm that kept me up for awhile. Then came the rain, which I actually did not want as it will make for a muddy harvest today! We are almost done harvesting the bulbs and will begin shipping orders out on Monday!
