Bye to Pontiac


Sorry to see the demise of Pontiac.
.
We spent quite a bit of time looking at Pontiac vehicles over the last year and they had several models that we liked very much.
.
Aimee ended up picking out a white Vibe and she loves it so far.
.
We also liked the G6 and the Solstice and the Torrent.
.
Too bad we won't have a chance to get a Pontiac the next time around because we very well might have.

Tomato Planting

This weekend we planted a bunch of tomato plants in the garden.
They are in for a very hot first few days so we are making sure to keep them well-watered.

Last year, we had a good crop of cherry tomatoes to snack on throughout the summer.
But our extended vacation in the middle of the summer took a toll on some of the plants with the larger tomatoes. It was quite hot for a couple of weeks while we were gone and a couple of the plants had trouble coping without regular watering.

Also, we think Rosebud took a liking to tomatoes and may have been sneaking a few pieces of the fruit for herself when nobody was around.

We'll keep a closer eye on that this year.

Aimee's Day


Today Aimee and I celebrated her birthday by having lunch together near her work in Santa Monica. It was breezy and sunny and a little cool.
Aimee's been putting in long hours for the last few weeks and now softball is starting to take up time on her schedule as well.
I can tell when Aimee has come home because Rosebud wakes up and starts wagging her tail like it's on fire.
