Great to be back in Arizona after a long day of flying yesterday. Little appears to have changed while I was gone – the fall grass seed Carmelo planted has come up thick and green, despite every effort by the local mourning doves to sabotage the effort. The front bushes are ready for their “winter” trim, just as the palm trees await their feeding, and the swimming pool its every-other-year draining. The lime tree is chock full of limes, and our new rabbit “The Big Nipper” and the other male in the house, Marble (a.k.a. “The Big Kahuna”) actually appear to be less hostile to one another when separated nose-to-nose by the rabbit room fence. The tiki bar in the backyard sandbox looks as cool as ever (pictures and story coming this week), and our FM clock radio issues (more on that this week as well) have not subsided. After a long day yesterday, it’ll be an early night tonight, and I’ll be blogging back at ya tomorrow.
