Ready to Go!

Ohhh...finally, everything is sorted and packed. And my suitcase weighs a whopping 50 lbs! What the heck is in there? I've NEVER had a suitcase weigh so much. Hiking boots and tripod add up to a chunk, for sure. I just hope I can lift it into the rental car! Fortunately, I bet Energia will help ;-)

The extra is of a gorgeous new crape myrtle that we planted in the new front low irrigation garden. Gosh it is happy! As is the....mmm..hover fly perhaps...that is enjoying a warm afternoon nosh.
