I was out watering the back yard plants before breakfast, including what has become the container herb and vegetable garden. A Worship Committee meeting took up the morning, and I could not work in the heat of the day. I managed to deadhead the new osteopernum and all the pink and white geraniums, a treat for Spots.
Mike and I examined the trees that are crowding the house at the back and overhanging the driveway. PG&E recommends that trees be trimmed at least six feet off the ground. The tree in the corporation yard shades the back of the house but it almost reaches the back wall. We will ask the tree contractor advice on cutting the tree unevenly to remove the branches most at risk on one side.
