Columbus Botanical Garden

As I had mentioned in a previous post, this past weekend was the Daylily Festival at the botanical garden. The morning had seen its fair share of rain and I was happy for the break in the weather (sitting in the car and waiting included). I’ve been a fan of floral images with water droplets and part of my excitement for the festival was the possibility of finding said images. I won’t pretend this one has that “water droplet” look, more appropriate would be to say it has been drenched by the rain. But, it is one of my favorite floral subjects, a black-eyed susan.

As I was getting ready to create this post, WordPress threw me a distraction… a Throwback notification for June 4th. I don’t believe there is anything special about this date, especially after looking at the listed posts, so I am curious what algorithmic logic pushed the notification to me today. As I scroll through my notification list I see WP has been giving me the option to view previous posts on each day… huh?

Apparently, I’m not very observant. Maybe this is a reminder for me to slow down. I have a routine in the morning (which could be good or bad), and I think I get fixated on working through the routine and not seeing anything in my periphery. Anyway, this morning I stopped what I was doing and looked through the posts that I have created on previous June 4ths. So, working backwards, for your viewing pleasure (or not)…
