2 more pictures in notes above! :)

My garden is still in the middle of a poppy blossom extravaganza, and though I could have shared some really neat pictures every single day for the past several weeks, I think you guys would hunt me down and shoot me for boring you to death with Yet Another Poppy Flower!! :D :D I *HAVE* been taking pictures most days and it's been really hard to resist sharing pictures on many occasions... and today... well, there wasn't anyway I could refuse! It's not my fault that poppies glow so amazingly in the morning light!! Today I fell over when I saw this salmon-colored, double-layered poppy. Which was covered with droplets from my garden watering. And then a hoverfly landed on it. The last straw was some really cool bokeh and that was just too much! *Janet explodes and the picture gets Pick of the Day* Not my fault. Blame the hoverfly. :D

Marcus Aurelius (26 April 121 AD – 17 March 180 AD) was a Roman Emperor from 161 to 180. He ruled with Lucius Verus as co-emperor from 161 until Verus' death in 169. He was the last of the Five Good Emperors, and is also considered one of the most important Stoic philosophers. Wikipedia: Marcus Aurelius
