Last Look at the Garden

Sunday evening I flew back to Sacramento.

But, first, I packed a few boxes,

washed and washed and washed -

horse pads, breeches, linens.

Anything stripped from a bed

or the back of a horse.

Brett and the gang of college kids

loaded Brett's dump trailer and the back of his truck.

Kyle's bed, desk and dresser 

to drop off in SLO;

Our wicker patio furniture

which will be furniture for the new house

until the moving truck delivers the rest 

at the end of July.

Tuesday

Brett and Kyle will drive to SLO,

and then Brett will continue to Placerville

to put this load in storage.

Then he'll head back south.

Rinse and repeat

four or five times.

He's going to be driving up and down the State

almost every day for the next two weeks.

I'll fly back to Aspen Meadows next Friday night.

We'll drive the truck and Brett's car back up to Placerville

the next morning 

with more stuff

and the dogs. 

So, this past weekend I said goodbye to my garden,

the orchard,

and the pool.

I won't have time for goodbyes next weekend.
