Grabbed a tote bag from the household bag of conference bags this morning and imagine my horror at finding that my partner has previously returned with one where the handles are too short to go over your shoulder?! what mockery of a conference freebie is this

A single fresh bud on our clearly confused rambler that has long since gone over. Meanwhile, it looks like the salvia amistad has finally decided to flower—in October! It’s been a very slow year in the garden.
