Monday

Not sure I'm getting used to the weather here, but I'm trying. It's 58 degrees today but projected to steadily climb to 91 by degrees next Thursday. Meantime, nighttime temps remain in the mid to upper 40s. Oh, well.
Lots of plants are blooming, a few of which I recognize: evergreen and deciduous azaleas, rhododendrons [of course], Chinese wisteria, mahonia. The ceanothus are on the verge; there are three or four large shrubs beside the drive that are loaded with buds. It will be a mass of blue once they open.
