Now every field is clothed with grass, and every tree with leaves: now the woods put forth their blossoms, and the year assumes its gay attire. - Virgil

Dear Friends,

 

I swear I can see the sunflowers growing!  The green canopy of leaves of all of our trees gives shade and comfort from the never ending bending over of wresting food from the earth.  It seems each year as we get older, the earth is becoming further away!  The blackberries and mulberries are starting to ripen..the proof is on the sidewalks with purple plops deposited from the birds that are gorging on them.  We'll schedule a 'pick your own' soon as these are too delicate to try and pack for you.

 

Now let me slip in horrible news...the San Diego Water Authority is seeking another 10% increase in our water rates  There will be a hearing on June 28th in city council chambers.  I'm still too panicked to think clearly on this but will have more on the subject next week.  We already have reduced our usage by over 20%, have buckets in both kitchen and bath and re-use the water we wash the veggies in.....
