This year’s Cot­tage Life chap­ter is over. Not the best, ei­ther; what with my new gig and all we vis­it­ed less, and the kids would as soon be in the city. Stil­l, it’s a rare priv­i­lege.

I could show you more moun­tains or birds or trees and trees and trees. In­stead, let’s set­tle for three fad­ing hy­drangea blos­som­s.

All on the same plant on the same af­ter­noon. This guy puts on a pret­ty nice show from spring through to fall and its pret­ty parts age then die with grace. I ad­mire that.

With any luck we’ll be back lot­s.

That is the problem, once the kids have lives of their own.. not usually that keen on fleeing the city for peace and quiet. We have a yurt on a peach farm (cf link from my name above) and we hardly get out there anymore..
