Tomorrow comes my 400-mile trip home to daylily-ville.  And my pups and kitties.   I can’t wait to see what the monsoon rains have brought into bloom.  I hope my squash and other veggies survived.  It is hard to be gone during growing season.

Today, I took a walk after dinner.  One of the few breaks from mandatory activities for work.  I found a little air plant.  I think live plants make cool souvenirs.  Maybe I really am turning into a gardener.  It is a grounding hobby in a world of uncertainty.
