Hi Lavina - Well the weather is going to be slightly warmer and less rainy for the next few days, so maybe that will cheer you up.

I moved my oxalis triangularis indoors - it has been in a partly shaded spot most of the summer and the leaves are beautiful dark wine red. I put it a crystal bowl on my dining room table and it is quite spectacular. Know it will thin out and shed before long, but for now it's nice to enjoy. Here's a photo. My Mom gave me the bowl years ago - it's American cut glass.

Did you come to New Bern for Ghost Walk? Heard it was nice. The Captain and I were very busy with the Cruisers' Rendezvous then, so we didn't make it.

There's a nice, small perennial garden in the front corner of the New Bern Farmers' Market. Lots of nice seed pods now.

The next New Bern event that is interesting to me is The Holly and The Ivy Holiday Homes Tour, sponsored by the New Bern Women's Club. Saturday December 9th from noon until 5:00 p.m. The huge newly renovated Blades house (across from the Craven Public Library) will be on a tour. There are six houses on the tour, it is only a one day tour, and tickets are limited at $12.00. Anyone planning to go?
