6-22-10 VERMONT: The round trip to San José was surprisingly uneventful. We arrived early both out and back, and no luggage was lost in spite of a plane-change. Remarkable. We were, of course, exhausted. Sunday was a pond day with the boys in it, and us around it.
Dan and Alison were here for part of Sunday morning having had a great time in the tent. Val, Maggie and Lucy arrived in the evening. The four cousins have been having a great time harassing amphibious vertebrates and carapaced invertebrates unfortunately residing in our pond at this point in history.
Tomorrow the girls start camp and Val goes back to NYC shortly thereafter. The boys have soccer every morning. We have trips to the Ben & Jerry factory and the rock and gem store planned.
New blooms: feverfew, more peony, delphinium, ‘purple rain’ salvia.
Feverfew. Do you suppose it actually works? Do you eat the flowers, leaves or roots?
More Peonies with juicy buds.
The Little Engine That Could.

The Peonies were my favorite flowers when I spent two years in Wisconsin. I am also wondering how one can use Feverfew. I tried growing Peonies in south Texas and no luck.
