Wae-Ling had a really good look at a rattling rattlesnake. I think it was her first rattlesnake.

If there was a rattling rattlesnake it would've  gotten a very good look of my fleeing backside

The Monarch Scientist made us turn back and she gave the seeds to the rangers so they could plant them. No way was she going past that snake.

Of course, since you didn't have your camera.  Did Wae-Ling have a camera?

Keith had a bit of excitement early this morning.  As he was about to get his coffee he noticed smoke outside in the landscaping.  A plant was charred black and smoldering.  It appeared to have been smoldering for a long time. 

He dumped 3 gallons of water on it and came back inside for his coffee.

15 minutes later he noticed the plant was smoking again.  Having had his coffee his brain reminded him we have a hose on our patio.  He gave the area a good soaking and then sent an email to management.  If we still had a shovel he would have simply dug the plant up himself.  It and the ground were too hot for him to touch.

Since the "fire" was next to our neighbors patio we think someone there, or possibly the neighbors above, dropped a cigarette.  We can only guess but it is rather disconcerting to think of what could have happened.

I spent 3 hours with Mom this afternoon, which is the amount of time it took to defrost her mini fridge.  Had a nice chat with Angie, her night nurse, about how little Mom seems to be eating.  Angie said she has an order for 2 nutrient shakes a day and sometimes Angie slips her a third one for some extra calories.

The defrosting took long enough that Richard and I had to invoke Plan B for our trip to Mariemont.  He picked me up at Mom's and we had just enough time to pick up some Skyline to eat in the park before the carillon concert.  It was a lovely program and we visited with Carillonneur Rick afterwards.  Then we tried to get Graeter's ice cream, but they were lined up out the door.  We went instead to that other Cincinnati favorite, United Dairy Farmers, and each had a dip of seasonal peach ice cream.  No chocolate for me because it's less than 12 hours until my stress test and I'm allowed no caffeine.

We did remember to stop at Mom's to retrieve my car  8)

Peach ice cream is a joy. I bought some peaches today, but I think I'll just eat them rather than make anything like ice cream or cobbler with them.

I'm finishing up the last half hour of I Am Curious ... Yellow. Surprisingly prescient movie that deals with topics all too common today.

Decent ice cream, but I'm still hungry for Graeter's...

It sounds like the staff there is very good.

Ithe was just one example plant fortunately.  We just wish we knew how it happened to prevent it from happening again.
