Goings on and a question for readers

[kinzel]

First, a report in the day lily population, which in this corner of the state pops up quite late....

but no, none in our yard yet.  A preliminary count looks to show 55 or 60 buds. I do hope they won't
all show up on the day after we leave for Worldcon...

meanwhile ...

Sharon's Barnburner and Gunshy  have been on sale 6 or 7 years and I'm wondering if anyone has comments on the idea of us making up an omnibus of the. In particular, those of you who read mystery regularly, I guess. The thing is that the electronic file for Barnburner was lost at the printers -- one made by shooting paper pages -- and if we need to redo it all it may just be worth resetting both into a single volume, with typoes fixed and the like... Anyone?

The icon represents my happy self, thinking about the Omnibus, the possibility of more of the same, and the day lilly population.

Here in NY/LI the many varieties of lillies seem to go on forever. Last time I was home to Maine, mine were (and had been for a while) still blooming. Mine seem to come much earlier than yours. This seems odd to me, given that we are not so far apart, geographically speaking.

I think the day lily timing has been affected by when we planted our first batch ... they were leftovers at the Agway, and got planted VERY late in the season. Ever since, the bloom late.

Nah, it's that environmental condition in your backyard. Just don't tell anyone that your daylilies glow in the dark, they'll want pictures.
