Roger and I bought a new hibiscus yesterday. It was a bargain. We were afraid that it wasn’t gong to the color that we wanted, and we wouldn’t know until it bloomed next year. But it was in bloom this morning! A great late summer surprise, and just the color we had been looking for.
The squash plants growing out of the mulch piles are huge. They cover an area of about 100 square feet. Many new flowers and produce this week.
Sarah and I went for a run this morning. I wouldn’t have done anything today if she hadn’t made the suggestion. I have to get out of this rut of only exercising once per week, if that much. The U.S. Orienteering Championships are in two months. Am I going to get into competitive shape, or not?
Sarah was frustrated because she didn’t feel as fit as she had a few weeks ago. I could really relate.
