Decided to harvest my one dozen olives today. Not enough to brine, because that takes several weeks. Maybe next year's harvest will yield better results. Although, I did cut back some of the branches. And, they always look so nice in a vase.
Long day. Even little Lulu was a bit concerned. Maggie, not so much. It felt good to just sit and zone out for a while.
I like the quiet of Sunday mornings. Brushing and skimming the pool as I watch the reflections in the water is very therapeutic.
Really love the way the afternoon sun lights up the bird of paradise
