This posting is for our friend Rose.
The keeper came home at a decent hour tonight with enough time to go outside, water some plants and sit with me on the deck.
For all of you who read this from far away, we have been having 80 degree weather.
As you know, the keeper loves this weather. However, we have friends who think this is hell.
We counsel patience because the onshore flow will show up soon enough!
Meanwhile, the deck is wrapped in fragrance--lilacs and wisteria, new mown grass, and laurel.
And the colors have popped bright and bold in this hot sun.
The hummingbirds strafe us on the deck, reminding us that their six feeders (yes, six now) will go dry by morning. They are as insistent as I am.
We have never had to water anything before June--till now.
The lights came on twinkling at the moon and lit up the newborn wisteria which is climbing all over the place.
