The Cabin

Good morning! I'm back at my window. But, just for this morning. This afternoon I go to Suwanee, to St. Louis on Monday, back to Suwanee on Tuesday, and there I'll stay till the following Tuesday. I DO LOVE to TRAVEL! It was fun getting back home even for just one night. Donna and Steve are here - have been spending lots of time here the last couple of weeks. Steve made fig preserves and gave me a jar - which I'll save for Pod Sisters visit in a couple weeks. The fig trees Jim planted up at the cabin are loaded with fruit now. The Great Blue Heron is skirting the Pond this morning fishing as he goes. What a wonderful example of patience and persistence he is! It must have been very dry the last two weeks. The yard is not green, mostly brown, but the dandelions persist. The sweet potato I transferred from the kitchen window to a pot in the yard is the greenest thing around! No, I also have three beautiful basil plants - all from one I planted last year. The little garden plot I covered with pine straw is now full of weeds! Still, I think they'll come out pretty easily. But, they will have to wait another ten days. Today I first have to finish emptying the car from the beach trip - a trip to a car wash to vacuum out all the sand - then I can repack. But, I will work in a yoga session with Donna, and maybe Steve too, if he's not busy painting the window frames on the back porch at the cabin. That, of course, must be done early in the mornings since it's on the west side and by noon it's too hot to paint there. Have I published a photo of the cabin? Don't remember doing so, so I will now.
