Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines

Rather too late I discovered the incredible crepe myrtle trees down here. Gorgeous, but fading now. Many blossoms got stripped off in the recent severe thunderstorm, but here are a few shots I collected awhile ago.

 

Last night I went to a concert by the 246th Army National Guard Band. There was a brief set of Dixieland pieces from a smaller section, then the full band with mostly jazz standards, some patriotic, popular and military pieces. I managed to sit through the heavier religious-patriotic points without too much discomfort, it was a nice evening. Love hearing all those saxophones play jazz.
