A very corny title for this Outdoor Wednesday Post.
Mrs. Rabe, I saw those eyes roll...lol.
But, I am corny...so what can you expect?
Every week Susan hosts this wonderful party.
Hope you have a few minutes to visit around and
see what is happening outside homes around the world.
Over this past week or so
every time I drive past
my Mom's house I see these amazing Iris.
So I decided that they needed to be shown.
Mom's neighbor is a State Trooper
who just happened to come home as I
was on my knees on very wet ground,
behind the flowers and facing his home,
taking photos of these Iris.
He headed over to chat.
I wonder if he was thinking I was up to no good.
Anyway, I think he knows now that I really was taking
photos of the flowers.
He also happens to have been the parent
at the bus stop the day I lost it at our
dishwasher.
If you want a laugh at my expense you
can read about it here and picture a stern
looking police officer wondering who I
am screaming at.
I was way too embarrassed to go out
and explain...never have.
As far as he knows I yell and scream at
my children or the pets or my husband or something.
I'll bet he never would have thought that it was the
dishwasher that caused all of that distress.
The wind was blowing like crazy so
the photos aren't what I had pictured in
my mind's eye...but who can resist the
green and purple?
Thanks for stopping by!
If you haven't done so yet I hope you will
visit my cousin, PJ, and enter to win
a $25 credit to my Etsy Candle Store!

pure corn
I love the photos! My parents had flowers like that when I was growing up.
I love your post title, very creative. I try to come up with creative titles, too.
The police officer...I have to laugh every time I think of the dishwasher meltdown. You know we've all done things like that! You're not alone!
I visited PJ's site and made a comment about your wonderful candles. I'm not sure it would let me leave my identity. I'll have to go back and check again.
I did NOT roll my eyes! I smiled! I had a feeling it was about these beautiful flowers! Your Mom's are so beautiful! I love that deep purple!
Very pretty....I am often seen in my neighborhood or someone else's taking photographs. I don't care if they think I'm crazy but hopefully they can see that I'm harmless.

Oh this is too funny, Becky. How 'bout you getting arrested for trespassing or something out there just taking pictures! And screaming at your dishwasher - arrested for domestic violence! People, we're gonna have to keep an I(ris) on this gal!
More "corn". HAve a good one!
So pretty dear Becky! I have some Iris too but they are not that plentiful with the blooms! I had to giggle about you taking the picture with the officer looking on! I am always snapping pictures in the weirdest positions:)
Enjoy your day my friend, HUGS!
Those iris are spectacular!!
The are just lovely!
Ours are but buds still-your season is ahead of us. Thanks for sharing while I wait for ours to open.
Wow those irises are beautiful! Absolutely beautiful.
Don't feel too bad about yelling at the dishwasher. We've all yelled at some inanimate object at one time or another. ;)
The irises are beautiful!
