Opened up

The lilies in the backyard are starting to open. I suppose they do this at this time every year because I got a similar photo 364 days ago! I didn't even realize it when I took it. How neat.

The sky looks a little better today. It's still not nearly as bad as it is east of here. The air quality index site I use says the air has been moderate the last three days, and today the needle is a little closer to good.
