But first, a picture of a bear. Sick moves, brah.
It’s a little overcast here in Victoria this morning but we know that it’s quite temporary. Soon the sun will be out and it will be quite pleasant.
There is much going on beneath the surface. We shall see what comes up from the depths in the next few weeks. A great discontent is in me.
The view from the sunroom in Victoria is even more magnificent than normal. White wisteria is 10 metres up a Douglas fir overhanging the yard; the new paving stones and plant shelving is very handsome. The deck has been completely redone and as a consequence no longer feels rickety, which is always a good thing.
The Anas hummingbirds have been putting on quite a show for us, zooming around and making quite unnatural noises. Right now there’s a nuthatch hanging upside down at the suet feeder.
Katie and I are heading back tomorrow and I’m just so grateful, so very grateful, that I have two intelligent and kindly parents to go and visit. So many people have none, or the ones they have are neither intelligent nor kindly.
I am looking forward to seeing Lexi tomorrow for a crochet lesson. I found my contact with the meetup folks who tat, etc., to be most unsatisfactory (and expensive, in a number of different ways).
