Before and after

I am so proud of this transformation. After 6 years of removing and planting new plants , the side and back of our main lot are really starting to shape up. It is such a good feeling to stand on the side lanai and take it all in. Pineapple and banana plants , Orange , Grapefruit, tangerine and lemon trees plus a back lot full of Ohia trees. It has been a lot of work and now it seems to have been worth it!

Indianapolis

I was born and raised in Indianapolis. During that time I grew to believe there were better places. I called it IndianaNOplace. I eventually moved to San Francisco (fell in love with it while there in the army) and poor old Indianapolis didn't compare well. When Indianapolis came up I would always say it was good to be from Indianapolis Far from it! That went on for 25 years.
But it is funny (not haha) how attitudes change.That point came to me again today as I watched (and listened )to Jim Neighbors sing Back Home Again In Indiana before the 500 race on TV . I got all choked up. I suppose I can't have it both ways and have to admit that I miss it . Not just the place but my parents that no longer are there or here .
There it is ----- I admit it -----I was a Hoosier .

Sunday Breakfast

For more years that I would like to admit Sharon and I have had this great big breakfast on Sunday. It really started with my family when I was a kid . As soon as I was old enough I started making Coffee for mom and dad . Then I graduated to fixing eggs and on Sunday small omelette's . After I was married this practice has continued. Over the years I have added things to it . I learned to fix hash browns and added sausage . At one point I shopped at Andronico's in San Francisco which had a selection of 50 sausages! I even went so far as to try a different one every week and went through almost all of them ,even rating them. After moving here I lost that luxury but still manage to find something. Still it is the fun in trying to make a good omelet every week . I haven't managed to get them as good as I want but will keep trying.
