Out in coastal Northern CA we're already entering early summer. This shot is looking back up towards the house. We've got a small cottage on a large (for the city) lot, on a double slope. A couple of big trees and the site orientation create a lot of shade, but our bone-dry summers (we are in a 3-yr drought with voluntary water rationing) mean I'm very, very careful about watering. Once every 2 weeks with a soaker hose setup, unless we get a rare 90+ degree heatspell.
