90 degrees with 70% humidity today, but there was still an upside to working outside. A plant folks here call horsetails are blooming. They aren’t much to look at. Scruffy, in fact. But, the smell is like an expensive perfume. They grow wild. I wondered why the VI’s didn’t want me mowing down these particular “weeds” Now, I know. Not the same plant we called horsetails in PA. I’m curious enough to do the research and try to find out what they really are. I may not be able to pronounce botanical names, but beginning to see their value.

The sign you recommend would work, Cando. The ladies would be laughing so hard about the genius part, they wouldn't be able to clean. (Jim)
