Rainy season returns
The lawn goes from a flattened straw yellow to a perky deep green with just a few weeks of rain. It is now nearly tall enough to mow again, after the standard long stretch of dormancy. The sunny days of lounging on the porch are over.
The dustbath season for the cats ended with the rains and they welcomed the heat coming on indoors. Mo roasts himself by lying atop the heat vent while it is blasting out hot air.
Here is Mr Mo surveying the garden, supervising a final barbeque of the summer.
