78 degrees on November 6th













Forcasters are calling for flooding in all the usual places in Portland by the end of the day today. Here in Santa Rosa we experiencing yet another warm afternoon - sunlight filling up all the rooms, front and back doors open to catch a breeze. I'm in shorts and a t-shirt and I'm restless. All this sunlight is just not right. How does anyone get any work done around here?













Well, November it is and 78 degrees as well - so here are some updates on the garden:

First - a picture from mid-summer. I had just put in some beans in the middle - notice the little teepee frame thing. I thought it was going to be a wonderful structure...













Well... it turns out that whoever it was that dreamed up a beanstock large enough for Jack and the giant didn't stretch their imagination much. That massive green thing in the middle are the beans that ate the garden.





















and one more thing: I went up to watch Audrey (my youngest daughter) be a drum major and conduct a marching band field show at her high school homecoming.

Send news!

Anitra,

It's WET here! The coast is flooding--and many parts of your beloved Portland. Pray for us--as we are headed into yet another storm front this weekend. Hope all is well with you! :)
