  Thanks so much, everyone ~ Cathy, Terry, Susan, Darren, and Evy ~ for responding so enthusiastically to this photo.
You've echoed my "Wow" reaction yesterday, when I saw my neighbor's newly planted flowers. I'd never heard of/seen Cape daisies before...you can bet they'll be the subject for a few more submissions!
Thanks again for your comments!

  Thanks for your congrats, Patricia ~ you know by now I'm grateful no matter when they arrive! LOL!
Those space photos really are amazing, aren't they? I love the series showing progressive nightfall in Europe, various islands, etc., while the USA still has sunlight!
