Beauty and the Ugly

The old patio cover over the fountain is about to be torn down. So soon the background behind the roses won't look so ugly. We've needed to replace this for a long time and finally that is about to happen.

Today has been beautiful. The temperatures were just right on the patio and we ate lunch and then ate our evening meal outside enjoying the summer air. However, the news in much of the rest of our nation has not been so pleasant, with the fires in Colorado and storms and power outages on the East Coast.

And now we head into the huge July 4th Holiday week. I am thoroughly enjoying summer.

Good night from Southern California.
