| Heres the lake part of the view from my front porch. |

| Grey Water System. Tube feeds from the kitchen sink. There are seven plant species in and around the pond. Enormous taro leaves should dominate and cover everything eventually. |

| By the time you read this, I got a haircut. This is the semi-rare and beautiful Flor del Izote from my very own tree which is a fencepost as well. Maria pointed it out to me; Im embarrassed for not noticing. She said you have to cut it down because if you dont, one of the neighbors will. The flower petals are edible and I ate them all sauteed in a bit of oil with tomato and one egg. They reminded me of brussell sprouts. I hope theres enough smile in this to satisfy my mother. |

| Kittens, as promised. I really need the pageviews. Theyre not mine, but I may be adopting the mother soon. She looks just like the white one. |
