The SSIG meeting last night was very interesting and I learned a lot! While I’ve done replication before, I didn’t know all the different types of replication that are available and where each one would be best to use in which situation. I will have to practice creating some so as to keep this training in my head as clearly as it is now.

I see the weather forecast has us cooling off by the weekend. That’s good as I don’t like these 90+ degree days too much. The sunrise and moonset this morning was outstanding! I itched to have my camera in hand to record it. The moon was blood red and HUGE with vermillion clouds chasing across it’s face. A real visual treat! The sunrise, on the other hand was, soft pinks and rather dreamy. I think all that means we’re in for rain, but there isn’t any in our forecast today. There is some in it for tomorrow and Friday and we desperately need it!

Am glad you all enjoyed the pictures of the azaleas. This is the first year they have bloomed so nicely. The orange one did bloom last year, but was not nearly so showy as this year. These bushes are in a protected spot next to  the back porch, so that’s why they cold didn’t hit them as hard as it did everything else. My poor fig bush is totally blasted and I fear it is dead. That would be a crying shame as so many birds and insects enjoyed the figs and I would occasionally pick them for people who wanted them.

Well, I must get back to work!

Love to all,

Margaret
