Our previous house had 2 big hedges of them and I just had to have lilacs here. My Son came in from outside one day and said "Mom, there is a lilac bush behind the shop" - couldn't believe it. I think someone just threw it there and it took hold? So we set out to move it. He and I together got it out and moved it to a new spot where it could be seen and smelled. That was about 4 years ago - my husband kept telling us it wasn't going to make it. It did look sickly, but got better each year - this year it REALLY went crazy and had a ton of blooms on it. We had them in our house and our neighbors did too!. I did buy 2 other bushes too after transplanting the throw away and am content and at home now that I have my lilacs.<br /><br />I could smell lilacs reading your post!

I don't remember how I marched in the parade, but it was thrilling...really felt like a big deal...I was not in the flute section, but the low brass section as a baritone horn player...your lovely writing bout lilacs evokes deep feeling in me...even in the Silver Valley with its miasma of toxins, the lilacs sweetened the foul air with sweet fragrance.raymond perthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04924633611890299829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939465.post-52971133218759710942009-06-03T23:44:15.822-07:002009-06-03T23:44:15.822-07:00I LOVE this blog post.

Could it be that two north Idaho girls played flute in their respective bands and probably marched in the Torchlight Parade at the same time? I was sometimes first chair, but not always.I tried to plant lilacs down our driveway here, but water restrictions kept the hedge from happening. I love that you can drive by and see those same lilacs you wrote about. What memories!Christy Woolumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02748862572108653566noreply@blogger.com
