I left Grand Isle, Louisiana Friday morning with torrential rains and lightning. I arrived in California Friday evening to heavy rains and lightning and with predictions of a fierce storm this weekend. Since my fence is already down, I didn’t worry about that happening again but I worried about all the spring flowers that have emerged, fearing they’d be torn to shreds. So far, my new garden is still flourishing. The blooms on the saucer magnolia are mostly gone but there are more daffodils than when I left, a few iris, and the best of all, the dwarf peach tree off my patio is coming into full bloom. To me, that’s peachy keen!
