The Carlton orchard looks like a lush Garden of Eden from the abundant irrigation. The big question is, will there be any fruit?
Unfortunately, a late frost damaged the blossoms a few weeks ago, which will reduce the yield significantly. So it goes.
It wouldn't be the Garden of Eden without one. That's Millie checking out a RUBBER snake, I guess part of her education to rural life. Snakes are a fact of life in that area, including rattlesnakes, which they can expect to see every summer on the farm. So it goes.
In a different world, we went to a mostly Mozart symphony yesterday and heard the Clarinet Concerto in A Major. Mozart adored the clarinet (and so do I.)
We're enjoying beautiful warm weather and no lasting damage from the Friday night water mishap. The hall carpet is (slowly) drying out. And there's a silver lining to every cloud-- it looks considerably cleaner after all the blotting up. Not so the white towels.
