i awoke to a sun beam streaming through a misaligned horizontal blind this morning at 8:30. i could hear that justin was already taking his shower and i thought how lucky we were that little j’s classes didn’t start until a civilized 9:30. when i got downstairs i could see that the north facing planter in the back garden was bathed in early morning sun so after putting on the kettle for tea i grabbed my camera and took some snaps of my dewy japanese aralia in the only sun it ever sees.
m is in town (escaping the snow in the east) for a few days and we have been planning and drawing another planter box for the back garden as i am already running out of space! i look forward to seeing how that project progresses.
