quick sky fire...

November 13th, the sky is on fire

I split the crotch of my pants at work, an odd chill, no one seemed to notice; at 64 years of age, not much of a sex-target, there's some enjoyment in being anonymous.

Saved from the frost...

I brought some tender plants in last night--mostly sedums and stapelias, "Curly" the hanging Guatemala cactus laden with neon pink fruit, other stuff, an asparagus fern and a pelargonium and an African river palm still to come.

What Blue!

Thursday after work, the sun is shining, cool, maybe 55 degrees, very clear! There's nice color around, individual trees and shrubs, not psychodelic but better than last year; a series of early starts at work, 6:30am to 3:30pm, the same tomorrow, Friday, then, the weekend off! A light frost last night...I woke up to find a very soft frost on the windshield of the truck. I had moved most of the tender plants indoors so they seem to have survived in good spirits.

Lauren ran the San Francisco Marathon!
