It's one of the oldest market streets in Paris, and now it's been all spruced up.<br /><br />Judy, hope you're having a good time in NO. Muggy, yes, I can imagine.

I don't remember really ever seeing your yard from that perspective before. Honestly, it looks like something out of an 1890s painting :))<br /><br />I'm heading to New Orleans this weekend for the wedding of a former student. I've never been. It's supposed to be in the high 80s, and I'm sure it will be mugggggggggy. I hope your weather wettens up a bit.<br /><br />Finals are in full force today... only four more school days for me and then I can spend all of my time finishing the new house and moving there! And getting enough time to read the blog everyday :))<br /><br />JudySeine Judeet (Judith)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07407353544376132484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-82795575041741053352011-05-27T14:05:53.820+02:002011-05-27T14:05:53.820+02:00I am sorry to hear this news about your continuing...I am sorry to hear this news about your continuing dryness...Meanwhile we have far too much water and I spent time two evenings this week in the basement because of tornado watches......Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-14441287432236954492011-05-27T09:16:14.912+02:002011-05-27T09:16:14.912+02:00Yes, Diogenes, dry is better than damp for the gra...Yes, Diogenes, dry is better than damp for the grapes and the wine.<br /><br />Susan, thanks, I've found government documents too. We're pretty familiar with water restrictions, which are mostly common sense once you're aware of them, after living for nearly 20 years in California.<br /><br />Meredith, we just had the lightest misty shower too, but it was far too little to help at all.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-18374178609324510302011-05-27T08:30:08.601+02:002011-05-27T08:30:08.601+02:00Well, it's raining in Provence this morning, b...Well, it's raining in Provence this morning, but probably not enough to make a difference.deedeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10278468497564430383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18071407.post-74495010518977722052011-05-27T08:23:01.448+02:002011-05-27T08:23:01.448+02:00Your roses and kalanchoe are lovely.

Potagers can be watered whenever you like until level 3 restrictions come in, then you can only water between 8 at night and 8 in the morning. I'll look up the site with the details and forward.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.com
