Well, I’m finally caught up from the trip. There was a lot of eventfulness to sort through. Then I had a lot of dying garden to attend to, in the process of which I mysteriously threw my back out and can’t garden or do much of anything. Good thing I got vacationing out of the way in time to be forced into inactivity!
It was E’s actual birthday on Sunday, so we did another cake (not homemade this time) when we got back. The apples are from Peifer’s Orchards, the vase and bird from Stoney Creek Garden Center, in YS.
Misu was very happy to get back outside after days of incarceration. Here she is relaxing in an empty pond liner.
Some flowers managed to survive and even thrive in the drought, in particular goldenrod, asters, and coneflower.
Here is this morning’s spectacular sunrise! I know rain is too much to hope for, but one can dream. It can’t not rain all the time.
