Everything was soaked today including me. Here are a few but I will have to take better ones tomorrow and post them instead.
It cleared off this afternoon but I was helping a real photographer take photos of the irises. Talk about equipment, I was impressed. I will take some more photos of the irises in the morning when they are not being rained on and post those with names. smiles

Not as many people in and out today. It did rain this morning so I did the best I could. The sun is out now so I will wait until this evening to take pictures of a few. It is too bright right now. Here are some that bloomed yesterday and this morning.
The two MDB's are Knick Knack and
Alpine Lake
My favorite SDB for the day is Rainbow Rim. I love the bands of color on the falls.

And they are so much lovelier in flower than my photos. It will reach 87 here today. The blooms are warm to the touch and are some are just drooping. They are really 'hurrying' to bloom. There are a few with staying power I think I should be taking notes on that instead of giving impromptu garden tours. lol

Oh my! So many beauties, and I could go on and on about most of them! Awake must live here- that baby matches my house perfectly, LOL. The color shading on Brighde makes me keep going back to stare at it, and Rainbow Rim too. Jive looks so bright and lively. Keep 'em coming!
