A pyromaniac for Torch Lilies
A pyromaniac for Torch Lilies
Sitting on the couch sometime last winter with my trusty perennial catalogue in hand, I gawked over the Pyromania red hot pokers or torch lilies. When they arrived and were sitting in the driveway, I told Mrs. Jan they had such a beautiful texture I would want them even if they never bloomed. That night, looking at the catalogue, I selected Pyromania Backdraft and Pyromania Orange Blaze, two of the six varieties in the series that gives you choices in yellow, orange and red shades.

Wake the Dead to celebrate milestone anniversary on Sunday
Anyone who has ever visited Wake the Dead Coffee House instantly remembers the Tim Burton-esque skeleton statue rising triumphantly from an urn with a cup of coffee. The iron statue, designed by Kevin Huffaker and his brother, Zach Volnor, who added the soft-hued, mellow lights, sits at the heart of Wake the Dead courtyard. 05/30/2021 05:00 AM

A Word About Recycling
Today’s column is just a little different. This is only because I couldn’t find enough information in any of my normal sources to do a normal column. What I did find was a number of headline-type sentences which I found interesting, although they had no further details. Hope you find some interest in them, too. These items are shown in no particular order, but just as I found them. 05/30/2021 05:00 AM
The Journey Continues
The Journey Continues: Commemorating Memorial Day
My journey this week takes me back to a memory of a mother’s love that has forever stuck in my heart. I witnessed this on a Memorial Day over 50 years ago at the Fort Bliss National Cemetery in El Paso. I saw a mother on her knees, leaning over a military grave marker with her arms clasping the cold stone for support. I saw a literal puddle of tears on the red dirt below the marker from her weeping so hard — her son was dead. Memories… 05/30/2021 05:00 AM
