Long time, no blog. The tennis fever lasted for over two months. We had lots of fun, a winning season.....couldn't ask for more. Second session starts next week but I'm ready to start adding other favorite activities back into my life. Just went on a book reading spree which I haven't done in a long time. Had the good fortune to read three really good books in a row. Olive Kitteridge, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, The Moonflower Vine, billed as a rediscovered classic, and the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, a great story full of little known WWII facts. Summer was long in arriving to our mountain town. After a rainy cool spring and early summer, we are finally having some really hot summer weather. My garden is voluptuous. The white and blue delphinium are getting about as tall as I am, the purple clematis are in full bloom, and my russian sage finally grew to the size I was hoping for....full of happy bees. Events of note since I last posted: my son graduated from college and my daughter graduated from high school. Oh, and I have a new grandpuppy, Sargent, a very handsome young German shorthair retriever who is growing by leaps and bounds. Will post some photographs later.
