I am definitely a llama.

Tight-rolled jeans with rolled-down socks.
Also, aforementioned backwards clothes - even trained my Grandma to reply “jump, jump?” 😁
I don’t know if or when it came back (there seems to be a 30 year cycle for fashion where everything old is new again) or if you are just your own individual who doesn’t care if it’s in, just doing it because you like it.
Or maybe you’re rockabilly. Or too punk to care.
Or maybe I stopped noticing it and it never actually went out of fashion - it was me who went out of fashion!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
…And right into rocks/gravel…
I think wood chips were added later (after I was out of that school) “for safety” and then rubber mulch was an even later upgrade.
And when did something soft go in the playground area? Waaaay later, the school got actual grass in the playground - instead of playground equipment. 🙄 Building was closed within a few years of that happening.
Ooh, damn that’s rough!
I think we had some bars over asphalt/concrete/cement (I dunno, it was a big solid surface that was also the parking lot, the kickball diamond, the wiffle ball field, and where we had all of our field and track days) but I only ever fell off the ones over the rocks. I do remember friends with broken teeth or busted noses from that, tho.

These are gorgeous! Beautiful colors, and it looks like a lot more to come! ❤️
If they don’t smell and tend to stay a lot shorter, they’re more likely to be the asiatics. If they grow a lot taller and have a smell (that I personally love), they’re probably the oriental type.
Trumpet and daylilies (along with lily of the valley, calla lily, toad lily, easter lily, turk’s cap, and several others, are a lot easier to tell apart based on looks, but the Asiatic and Oriental types always confuse me until I smell them!
Some references (which, I have to use something as reference every year):
- https://bygl.osu.edu/node/1096
- https://worldoffloweringplants.com/difference-asiatic-oriental-lilies/
- https://www.thespruce.com/asiatic-lily-care-guide-7510540 (which is where I get reminded “Unlike Oriental lilies, which bloom in late summer and are known for their aroma, Asiatic lilies bloom in late spring or early summer and have little to no scent.”)
No worries! Like I said, I always have to check, between those 2. Looks like you’ll have a ton coming in over the next weeks - of both!
So I guess I have a ton of the Asiatic lilies, a lot of the OT hybrid (also sometimes called Orienpet, but that sorta sounds silly to me), a few trumpets, and a couple oriental.
😁
Also, that many of the flowers that were sold as star gazer bulbs were definitely not.
