Salix lasiolepis
It was so good to meet with SMMNJC again this past weekend. Due to vacation, holidays, and wildfires it had been four months since I’d got to hang out with the gang. We welcomed four newcomers, and all enjoyed our time in the sun. I got curious about the arroyo willow flowers and identified male/female. Did not identify the odd stem growth, but mysteries are OK by me.

Strictly speaking, it’s not an antique because it’s less than 100 years old. But it’s getting there!

Do you have a favourite Dickens novel? Mine might be Bleak House.

It’s time to move on to our next temporary lodging. We’ll be bouncing around a bit for the rest of the month.

The alerts are telling us: “Be prepared for potential mudslides, debris flows, rocks and water in the roads in all recent burn areas, especially canyon roads. It only takes ½ inch of rain per hour to start a debris flow.”
beer clock
My MIL’s home has an eclectic mix of decor items and wall art. I asked for the story behind this clock — when she got it, and why. Did she enjoy the beer? She said it was given to them decades ago, and she has always liked it. ’It’s just fun,’ she said. ‘It’s a rec room thing.’
Google ‘beer clock’ and you’ll see that a lot of brands make them. Because it’s always time for a beer??
