THEY'RE BACK!

The hibiscus are back..Were they planted by former owners? Did they drift in? Who knows--but they are a pretty sight.

One for the Bug Blog

Hammock Hints

With help from my grandson Lucas (visiting from Maine), we present the proper way to keep a hammock when not in use. Why?

HAPPY FOURTH!!

From the California Grandsons to you and your family.
