"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Monday, Monday


It was an extremely emotional Mother's Day Weekend...and I was hoping for a warm, Spring Monday to push past it. Alas, it was not to be......as you can see, the San Francisco Skyline is full of dark, ominous clouds..... and....it is raining and cold (50) as I write this. Actually, I am a lover of rain....but, we have had more than our share this year....sigh... well, at least the flowers, trees and birds are happy!
Still, Spring is slowly and gently weaving her spell.... these gorgeous blooms are in my neighbour's back yard. (I hope you can see all the levels of the yard... we live on a hill. After all, this is San Francisco!) They re-landscaped last year and it is paying off - plants blooming, birds happy..... "My" Mocking Bird makes frequent stops here.

I am reading a marvelous book - not for everyone, but some of you would like this. "In a Dark Wood Wandering"...by Hella S. Haase. A very powerful and moving story set in the fifteenth century, during the Hundred Years War between France and England.
Sending you all love on this wet Monday,
