My great-grandfather was born on a farm in 1900. He did not drive a motor vehicle until he was 35 years old. My mom says that he did not believe that Neil Armstrong could’ve possibly walked on the moon in 1969. He insisted that NASA was lost in the desert somewhere.

My trip to Monterey,California was amazing.

I tested and proved my theory that Carmel weddings need Jack Daniels.

There were pit bulls.

And I made lots of new friends!

Rusty had an extensive conversation with Friday night’s thunderstorm.

I had a few damaged inches layered and cut off of my hair.

The trumpet vine on is in full bloom.

So is the pecan tree, where I hide the bird bath.

I am trying to grow my own tomatoes.

Jennie loves supervising the yard work.

And, unlike the rest of us on Beer Can Hill, Merlin loves the hot weather.
