Greenville's "Tiger Lion"

Pyper and I came across Echinacea today flowering beside one of our favorite places for a yummy treat, the Swamp Rabbit Cafe and Grocery.  We stopped to admire it after a tasty ice cream sandwitch, chocolate chip scone, and tandem bike ride.  

We borrowed this kid tandem for a couple miles down the Swamp Rabbit Trail.  Pyper had a blast ringing the bell as we passed folks on the trail.

She's been able to recall many plants by name of late, like Rosemary, ivy (even the poisonous kind), and different flowers.  Yesterday we came upon a small patch of Tiger Lily and Andy asked her if she remembered the name of it.  After a pause, she announced it as "Tiger Lion."  Much like the name she has for Dandelion, which is "Daisylion."  I love how the blossoming mind works.  And in quite the fasicinating way, it really makes sense.
