Grapes from the Garden Anyone?
The grape vine (seedless red Concord) loved the drought. Other things are now recovering thanks to the rainy week.

Spring
When I was walking about yesterday, I thought I could not bear to leave the exuberance of DC’s spring. Only my house sitter would be able to watch all the new seedlings coming up in my garden. I would miss the last of the cherry blossoms. Then I thought that it would be spring where I am going–and no doubt gorgeous in its own way.
In photo from front to back: tulips, azaleas, redbud, dogwood (pink and white).

Another Rainy Day
A storm has decided to stop and hang out for a few days, which is good, because we really needed the rain here inside the Beltway.

Found Exhortation (and Samskaras)
Over the years, our minds and emotional selves get clogged with junk unless we do something to clear things out and to avoid repeating old negative patterns (in yoga–samskaras).
Our bodies, too, get clogged with junk energies that take us off-balance and ultimately manifest as illness unless we take care to eat well, exercise, sleep regularly, and avoid undue stress.
A home filled with junk has its own samskaras and can prevent us from dissolving and liberating those of mind, body, and spirit.
Do meditate, live a healthy life, and surround yourselves with only that which cultivates a more beautiful and generous life. You will likely be happier for it.

State of the Garden
How blessed I feel to be able to come home at the end of October to some bounty and to be able to eat it straight from the plant without worry.
so lovely.
