Our grapes are getting plump real fast. And our volunteer conifers are super happy. They grew several inches this year. 🌱🌳

Baby “Bacon” variety avocados! Latest date I’ve seen berries on this tree. Let’s see if they’ll survive summer and winter. 🌱🌳


Probably going to have a bumper crop of figs this year! Last year was meager. 🌱🌳


Spotted a Hooded Oriole in the front yard as we we started an after lunch walk. What luck. A first!


More of this rain please.


Our front yard Toyon (first photo) and Yarrow (2nd photo) are blooming. Just the California buckwheat and the California fuchsias are left to bloom. 🌱


Been several years & usually I’m behind on WiFi tech so figured it was time replace the old eero Pro with an eero Pro 6E. I only use one eero as the house is tiny. Now getting top WiFi speeds on the local network 🙌


Mockingbirds are going to have an amazing late summer of grapes from our cultivated California grapes. These have an amazing assortment of bugs too. Still have ladybugs in them. 🌱


Pineapple guavas have been blooming for a few weeks now. The Mockingbirds love munching on the flower petals.
