Mother's Day Flowers & Family

The Owen's family brought this big, potted Hydrangea up to Elaine for Mother's Day. The plant has already outgrown the size of the pot so Carolyn is already looking for a larger one. We hope to keep it on our Patio during this summer. She thinks it is of the Annabelle variety and I'm pretty sure it is of the AG species. We sold and planted many of these back in the 1950's while working with Nebraska Nurseries. We had a couple of them in our back yard at our 1st Street house and I remember putting a good shot of Lime on it one spring to get blue flowers. We may have to do some testing with this one. We had a rather quiet, but good Mother's Day with Lunch this noon up at Hughes. We had good visits with all 3 boys. Tim reminded us that Taylor Duncan playing in the PGA Byron Nelson Golf tournament was a local Columbus, IN, fellow. He finished in the top 10 and got some publicity for hitting his wife with a golf shot. (She was not hurt). Verlon mentioned the Book, "Bottom of the 33rd" that I am reading. He tells us of remembering the 1981 game since Richmond, VA's Triple-A team was in the same league.
