These lilies are so beautiful I almost have to look the other way. Speaking of over the top, we're in for a heat wave in Seattle and lilies do not like temperatures in the 90's. That means water, water and more water to keep them going. When John gets the next water bill, I hope I'm not in shouting distance.
It has not rained in Seattle for 25 days. As you can see on the extended forecast, the only day with a chance of precipitation is Saturday, the very afternoon we are planning an outdoor party for our visiting Montana friends. On Friday the lilies will be burned to a crisp, on Saturday we could all be drenched. I'm not in a good mood this morning.
