Another breathtaking sunset!! I could see a million and never tire of the beauty.
Hot
Our A/C went out yesterday but since the weather is SO bad, our guy can’t replace the appropriate part. I’m drugging myself tonight; last night was bad enough.
The good news? The rain is keeping the temperature down. It’s 82 in the house right now and I want to scream. But… at least it’s not 98 in the shade.
A Futile Battle
I have a gift for planting the exact wrong thing in the exact wrong place. To wit: Seabreeze bamboo. I thought something in that space for shade would be wonderful, not realizing that the bamboo would grow 30 feet tall and almost as wide.
The picture indicates work to cut it back/thin it out, done over several days… because early mornings and late evenings are best if one doesn’t wish to pass out from the heat.
I stopped here because reality dawned: The thing will be right back to it’s previous bulk within a month. Ah, well. (Another way to say “F*^% it.”)
I miss Daisy.
Pigeon Peas
There are pigeon peas growing in the ‘hood. I’d never heard of them, but now think planting some would be a good idea.
