I Do Love It Here

After months in the desert, one feels….dusty.  So…..

Shiloh gets a bath….

And the next day Joy gets a bath.

Too hard on my achy joints to bathe them both on the same day.

Much as they love jumping into any body of wild water, baths are barely tolerated, but getting dried off is loads of fun.

Then a few days later, Wandering Spirit gets a bath too.

After the washing a couple days later she gets a wax job…except for the top.  Right now my knees aren’t letting me go up and down the ladder multiple times like waxing the top would require.

Joy next to WS as if we were still camping.  This was taken while everyone was still dusty.

And then I bought this great big tarp and Mary helped me cover WS to protect her from sun damage.

😕. Not all that attractive  is it?  By releasing a bungee cord or two I have easy access to the inside so I can clean and whatnot.

After and between the bathing and waxing, I’m working on a little garden in Mary’s front yard, and some potted herbs in her back yard.  This is a work in progress, something I’ll be playing with throughout the summer.

California is in bloom right now…..

A field of wild mustard.

Gardens everywhere.

This is called Breath Of Heaven.  A favorite of mine. I planted one in Mary’s garden.

Heading towards ocean and sky…a view from Imjin Road in Marina.

A view of a small bit of Monterey Bay driving on Hwy 101 through Sand City.

Yes, I do love it here!
