My Mom was a rabid, die-hard Tigers fan. When they clinched it in '68, she piled us kids into the car and we waited behind Tiger stadium for the team bus to arrive. Everyone else was celebrating in front of the stadium while we watched the team get off the bus with hardly a soul around. #Legend

Time to make room so I can bring these guys inside (where?!). This will be their 6th year overwintering. I'm committed. 🩷

I look forward to this contest every year. Such interesting collections. 📚 "The annual prize, which rewards American women book collectors aged 30 years and younger, was established in 2017 by Honey & Wax Booksellers to expand the popular perception of who book collectors are and can be."

After struggling all summer, the annuals are loving the cooler weather. 🌸 No filters, such intense color!
