Agapanthus

Agapanthus abounds in CA. I had never heard of it until our first trip out here about 10 yrs. ago & have been in love w/it ever since. It is quite happy in my Houston garden, too. Hopefully, there will BE a garden when we return. The temperatures are just awful at home. We play a final round of golf at Pacific Grove tomorrow afternoon. Sat. a walk at Garland Ranch & Mass at the Mission. Then, home on Sun. Always good to get home. This has been a lovely month. Mostly, I am grateful for our time together and Wil's restored health.

Par 3 - HA!

Every par 3 at Rancho Canada requires hitting over a ditch...a wide ditch. half the time I make it. The other half...not so successful...making par extremely difficult. I am always happy w/a 4 on these holes. Got over this one nicely today.

Last Round with Bob

Bob's son joined us for golf today. We had so much fun...in spite of vigorous wind & chilly temperature. We cross the Carmel River several times at Rancho Canada East.

Lavender Fields Forever

Took a walk around Carmel Valley Ranch...climbed seriously UP to the lavendar fields. Oh, my stars! Breathe...more...more (What my yoga teacher/friend always said). Can you smell the exquisite lavender fragrance? As you can tell, all senses are engaged on this wlak!

How I Spend Our Evenings

This is a work in progress...needlepoint. It will be turned in to a box to hold Christmas cards. So many people are still kind enough to send us Christmas cards, even though I no longer send them myself. Thank you if you are reading this & plan to send us a card. We do treasure them!

How We Spend Our Middays

Finding golf balls...my quota is 2 a day but I've exceeded that...4 doz. so far, which will see me through the entire year. It drives everyone crazy but I am saving tons of money on golf balls. Ha! Ha! Jeff is still ahead of me in the "finding golf balls" game though.
