Gee, George, that's exciting -- can the ground absorb the water after such a long drought? That was a great welcome home for Miz Anne! We've been freezing. We were planting new bushes yesterday with our winter snow suit jackets on, honest. What's more, with this nutty wind, I had a head scarf and a warm neck scarf pulled on tightly, as well ... plus full-length jeans and work gloves! A very oddball month of June, wouldn't you say..? Last night some friends took us out for our anniversary, and we went ape at a new Indian restaurant ... chicken tikka masala, tandoori mixed grill, samosas, pakoras, lamb sag, shrimp booma -- ah, this were paradise enough ....... I believe that we could eat curried shoe leather and be happy.
