I love lilacs too. My hometown is called the Lilac Capital of the World! Lilac festival, parade, Lilac Queen -- Lilacia Park with every kind of lilac bush you can imagine. Smells and looks beautiful. OK, now I'm homesick!

Is your hometown Rochester NY? :)

LOL! Rochester NY is also the lilac capitol. Every May there is a lilac festival and parade, and Highland park has thousands of different lilac bushes. The street lines are painted purple for the week of the fest.
Here's a link-

That is hilarious! I guess there are several Lilac Capitols of the world!!
We never had purple lines on our streets, but the big water tower in the middle of town was painted purple; at one time the police cars were all purple (but they were razzed so much, they stopped that!)
Here's the link to Lombard's
