Summer’s mile marker
June 24, 2006
One of the measuring posts of summer’s progress on my morning walks is at the stop sign at the southwest corner of 22nd and Adams. Shortly before the arrival of the summer solstice, a cluster of red and yellow Tiger Lilies begin climbing their tower of blooms.

I took a couple of shots on June 18 when the short bloom cycle was almost finished, and by the 22nd of June they were finished for this year. I hate to think that it’s all downhill from here, but Tiger Lilies never lie.

Dave, thinking that Tiger Lilies really aren’t that pretty.
