Petey babbles on about the southern sun, long shadows, kinetic art in the house and finally a small primrose. Whew!
Oenothera primiveris seems a few hundred feet in elevation out of place at out home near the banks of the Ol’ Guajolote. Its normal range is listed as only up to 4,500′, but then plants can be so unruly. Guess we’re lucky to have this beautiful little harbinger of spring around the 1991 Marvellette.
A few days of traipsing and hunting deer in the hills and all Petey can talk about is hearing his heart beat. Oh dear. ...
Petey says it is the year of the Desert Cottontail and tells us all about the furry little rascals that breed like rabbits.
This episode is a reminiscence…something I seem to be doing a lot of lately…and also a plea for getting our children and grandchildren out...
