Christy's garden and the Solstice

 I left my mop at the meditation retreat and Mark and Christy brought it home with them (because someone is always the last to leave, cleaning up til everything is perfect.) I'd wanted to see Christy's garden for a long time and this was my opportunity so I pedalled over the other morning and we did a quick tour.

 She's been a garden diva since I first came to Chico and used to publish a calendar that was a planting guide. I've always been in awe of her wide-ranging knowledge and impeccable eye for plants-- health, pruning... my guru on all of it.

 Tonight was the Solstice and the moon is almost full. I didn't walk around and do any photos but my heart was full as I picked blackberries in the sunset and dusk. How glorious these moments are. All life on a pedestal.
