After an unusual week of wet, cool weather, the yard has sprouted a lot of flowers, leaves, and even grass. Maybe a real lawn will be possible after all. The pomegranate bush had an adverse reaction to the rain and lost all its leaves. I crawled under the bush to retrieve four old basketballs that became visible without the foliage.
The large cactus has hundreds of new blossoms, many more than the one day it bloomed over the summer.
Russell spent a tedious two hours patching up the hole in the fence from the sewer connection. We replaced the crosspiece with a plastic pipe that I spray painted silver-- much cheaper than the metal alternative.
Russell worked hard on framing the ceiling and skylight openings this week. The vaulted ceiling makes a huge difference already! New window frames are next, then the foundation and framing for the addition...
