“Summertime and the living is easy” sums up my sunny season. Not to age me however saying I think of these lyrics done by Ella-not Sublime does so. My leisurely summer has been way different than past summers and included some firsts-like doing consulting work and acquiring a beach condo.
Fall moves into view with gardens looking dried out and weary, leaves starting to fall, and produce piling up on countertops. The produce has provided lots of good eating and putting food up, I will make another batch of salsa and some hot pepper jam. The fall garden got off to a rocky start, the pests almost wiped out the napa cabbage and broccoli, The snap peas are coming up, and the lettuce is trying to through the last of the summer heat.
Caught August’s full moon while at the beach on a late night stroll. It was a very windy night, the surf was up with the tide.
The next day proved absolutely gorgeous, low humidity, and later in the day during low tide, I took the following photo after I awoke from a long nap.
We ended up the summer seeing Los Lobos at The Hamilton. It was sold out, and a great show! And heres the setlist. Enjoy
