Five....

 ....that's how many days the white rain lily bloom lasted.  

It was still beautiful as it shriveled up in a wabi-sabi kind of way.

But do you see what I see?  Another bloom is coming!  Nature just keeps on giving.

And how beautiful is this wabi-sabi touch of fall.  Pretty darn beautiful!

And these giant sunflowers against the bright blue sky at a local garden center captured my heart! They had to be 7 or 8 feet tall.
