Year 6, Day 2 “Living the Dream”. Saturday, 5/02/2026, The Wellington. Good Morning Moon and Happy Kentucky Derby Day!!
Today is the 152nd “Run for the Roses” at Churchhill Downs in Louisville. KY. Here in Kentucky it is a very big event. It is nice that it is a cooler weekend for the big race.
While the Photographer worked on inside pictures, we worked on outside planting.
Daffodils are done and marigolds are taking the spot. Have you noticed your inside and outside flowers and plants are really starting to bloom and grow right now. Ever wonder why. They use both changing temperature and changing amounts of sunlight to figure out when to bloom. That means May isn’t just warmer. It’s the month where light hits the perfect amount. Plants use Photoperiodism. Photoperiodism acts as a biological clock. It triggers developmental processes like flowering in plants, or migration, hibernation, and coat color changes in animals based on the season. Pretty cool isn’t it.
The For Sale sign is hung in the afternoon.
