So by all reports there has been a little bit of a drought and as a farmer's wife that should be a great concern. John was happy to report heavy rain today as he continues to search every nook and cranny. This shows the macadamia orchard and because the previous owner didn't clear all the nuts you can see all the baby trees trying to pop up. This is John's dream and he tells me he has to pinch himself to make sure he's not dreaming. I am now anxious to go and join him even though I dragged my feet at first, I miss John and want to start this new adventure!

Back on the home front, we had another open house and so we all needed to be out of the house. I went to the San Francisco Zoo with my son, his wife and grand-daughters. It was really chilly but we had fun!
