Oh, the sun rolls down, big as a miracle/And fades from the Midwest sky

Woohoo! Iris season!
One of my old administrative assistants gave me these Iris bulbs for my birthday one year because I always admired hers so much. The OM and I planted them and they have been bringing me joy ever since.
Wow.
And my sister (and DP) sent me this song:
Hope you enjoy! (It made me cry.)

I get choked up too, but we’re in good company. Don Henley said it is the only song guaranteed to make him tear up; it reminded him of his father and grandfather, who were both farmers. Don would have been better off farming in Texas — though we’d have missed the Eagles as a result.
