The dry spell continues, the rain promised for today has been pushed back until the middle of next week. Lightning strikes on the north and south horizons last night but nary a drop fell on our island home and gardens. Spot watering judiciously because even though we are surrounded by water the electricity to pump that water 238 feet up from our well is not free and contributes to climate change. The stepping stones that my wife and I made by hand with some leftover concrete redimix from another project, are now installed in the little forest in the NW corner of the property. This area was used as a junk yard by my less than lovely neighbours about a kilometer down the private lane that runs past our house. The Lavender is starting to bloom and smells wonderful.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
