Perfect autumn weather in Seattle this week with no rain in the forecast until the weekend. As luck has it, our West Seattle ukulele group is scheduled to play outside on Sunday afternoon at the Fauntleroy Fall Festival.
Once in a blue moon, the Costco geraniums survive the winter, but doubt that will be the case this year. We're going into a La Nina pattern, trending to wetter, colder and snowier than average (whatever average means these days.)
As you've probably noticed, the fall and Halloween decor (except for tons of candy) is almost gone in the stores. I went to Home Depot yesterday looking for winter blooming pansies and the nursery was already shut down, with full on Christmas inside. They did have a nice final display of chrysanthemums outside the door. Of course the yellow pot hooked me.
Since Tom painted the shed door many years ago, I've been attracted to that Viking yellow. It's a garish color for sure, but cheerful and improbably it looks good with blue.
I'm not going to jinx it by talking about it.
