Sorry, just had to brag a bit.

11:00 am – going nicely, now. Up to .30″ for the storm, and about .15″/hour rate at the moment. More than was predicted, at least up here. It has hovered between 41-42 degrees all day, so nice fire going.

8:00 am – nice gentle rain going on, now, added another .4″ so far.

7:00am – Only .21″ but I’ll take it! We MIGHT get a few more sprinkles today, but a better chance is coming on Saturday.

Having significant difficulties with internet and blog postings. I have a number of posts set to automatically post, like Friday’s Photos, and straightened everything out this am, I think. None of my pending posts were showing up, the last few days, in fact, my wordpress software was showing I’ve never posted a single thing! S-u-r-e. Looking at ads for satellite internet and tv. I’m kinda fed up with this.

With lots of smiles and lots of laughter we came together in love, as Jesse taught us.

This is a precursor for the summer. One Cal Fire representative said on camera that the chaparral is burning like it was August!

The vernal equinox is Thursday, March 20, at 9:57 am. The signs are beginning at my place!

My rosemary is outta control. Has been for years. Once a year, we take a chain saw to it, and give it a haircut … Not too drastic – the bees love it, and a number of things are beginning to bloom. Remember, I am behind those of you down lower.
This is my dwarf Myer’s Lemon. It is in a pot, so I can bring it inside for the frost and cold nights.

I’ve had 11 lemons on this little guy. Ive picked 4. Couldn’t be done, one friend told me. Well …

I LOVE Spring. Maybe cuz I was a Spring baby.
