I decided my plants could wait.
Geez Louise. Forty years ago, when I first moved to this area, we would have had a lot of rain, and our first hard freeze, by now.
This is ridiculous. Between the unremitting heat, and the fires, and the ashfall, we have had here over the last three summers - every single year - I'm again thinking it is time to move.
But to where, exactly? That's the problem.
