8am - usually just as I'm racing out the door to get Maya to kindergarten. (I will confess that I've made her wait more than a few times so that I could get it up right away.)
I can almost smell that beautiful flower!! Looks very similar to our dahlias that we plant every single summer!! Someone has referred to them as "Dinner Plate Dahlias" because they are huge!! Great picture...and yes, I am smiling too!!
So glad you are smiling, Robin.
