A couple of Trumpet Flowers sprouted up in the yard and grew to enormous sizes. The blooms come to fruition within a day but seem to open before your eyes. I was intrigued and had to watch one open. The resulting video is a time lapse Lumiere.

Biggie Chikodzi gives a sculpture at Zimart's Rice Lake Gallery, a waxing and touch-up before the 2009 exhibit. It is worth the trip to Bailieboro for the annual exhibit of Shona Sculptures from Zimbabwe.
