Still on borrowed computer 03-26-21

 






This calla lily plant came from Asilomar in Pacific Grove, CA.  When the powers that be decided to only allow native or natural plants they tore out all the "invasives" which included the calla lilies when were abundan t.  They offered the plants to anyone who wanted them.  I took several, but this is the only one that survived.  It grows under the eaves and does well until the hot summer sun works its way under there.  Then it sort of shrivels up until fall.

Computer in the hospital! 03-21-21

Sorry to say my laptop died on me and is in the shop at Micro Center until (hopefully) Wednesday.  I took it to Geek Squad, but they didn't have the necessary battery, so I tried a few other places and finally drove down to Tustin to Micro Center.  I have had good luck with them before.  It was packed!  I wonder if that is due to Fry's closing.  Anyway, my friend Dick brought me a little laptop he can spare for a few days and helped me set it up.  I find that most computer stuff is beyond me these days.  Hope sending my blog this way will work.  

 I have been watching this succulent blooming in a neighbor's yard. 

 
The buds started to show color on March 2nd.

Last week the color showed more. 


Today they are brightly colored - like candleabra.

 
I have completed squaring up the 303 HST.  Now to decide what to do with them.
