Echinacea 3

From this to this to this! The echinacea are now out and looking very good. And please notice, the sun is shining!

Patrice the Frenchman left this morning dry, clean, well rested and well fed. He was heading for Schull to take a ferry across to Cape Clear Island and was mightily relieved to see the sun.

I have been digging up garlic and weeding the squash and leek beds and my nails are now shameful again.

Last night we went to see Super 8 - just the right movie as no thinking was required ( you know the plot - children good, adults confused, alien big, ugly and misunderstood). It was a 12 rating but there were a lot of unexpected explosions and rustlings which made me jump!

We're off out for supper so will catch up later.
