6/02/09 EGGS, NEW AND OLD




Tuesday, 8:00 AM, 52 degrees, wind WSW, calm at present. The sky is mostly clear and the barometer predicts rain, which we received a trace of last night. The back porch and the side deck are all freshly painted, the furniture and plants all arranged; time for a party on some warm evening!
Large flocks of Canada geese have been honking their way north mornings, they must be still migrating to distant nesting grounds, as the local geese are already sitting on eggs.
I’ve got the herb garden pulled apart to enlarge it a bit, and the big old Chinese “thousand year egg pot” from New York’s China Town, purchased thirty years ago for $25 and probably now worth many times that, is filled with water and is awaiting a water lily. Hope I don’t have to break ice when I finally get one.
