Ah, I'm finally back home after that loooong (mostly business) trip. It feels so good to be back home with my wife and four-footed and feathered children. Aside from one scare (a wildfire a few miles away), nothing untoward happened at home in my absence. There were even a few very pleasant surprises: our pampas grass has erupted in bloom — many on each of our two plants, our red fountain grass (now that it's protected from rabbits by a fence) has exploded, and our citrus trees are all in great shape. Virtually all our plants are showing very healthy new growth due to the nice rains we had early this year. Our aleppo (Italian Stone) pines have an especially hearty new growth — about eighteen inches of "candlestick" on the most vigorous of them.
Expect some posting to resume immediately...
