(6,581 posts)I would pay about anything if they could produce a palm hardy to my zone. People here do install some larger palms for the summers, but either just let them die or take them in.

CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)These were easy...I just pointed the camera (a good one, I grant you!) and snapped away. The toughest part was holding the camera up with my arm in a sling...
And you must know our sunsets are not always this beautiful!

(72,300 posts)I had dreamed about riding my trike south down the coast highway.
I'm certain that I would have loved it.

I hope you are mending well.
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)I could NOT believe the colors! They don't happen all that frequently here.
I am mending well, and thanks for asking! The last couple days have seen me more energetic than in some time...

This gives me a nice image to fall into sleep with...It actually looks a lot like the view from my porch in the Keys so many years ago...on the other coast lol...
Thanks for the pics.
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)Funny running into you here, sweetie!
I like your made-up word too!
We really don't get these colors very often. Glad you enjoyed these! Sleep well, sweetie!

Are you doing physical therapy yet? How are you progressing since your surgery?
Take care.
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)It mostly has left me, thank goodness...
I'm glad you enjoyed my pictures!
I am doing PT; this is my second week. I am making what seems to me to be glacial progress, but my PT lady says I'm doing very well.
And I feel much stronger!

Where in CA? I can tell it's somewhere south of San Francisco.
Thanks for posting them.
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)Yes, I am way south of San Francisco.......in a suburb of LA!
I'm glad you enjoyed these!

We had a full moon bonfire last night; it was pretty epic!
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,699 posts)Alas, I did not see the moonrise. I am mostly indoors these days...
I'll bet your bonfire was wonderful!
