California cool
We are still having cool weather and it is May.
This is not a bad thing. And it is probably not out of the norm. Just that for this year, there has been no onset of heavy heat for us.
It continues dry and there is no prospect of rain.
The condo grass is looking a lot browner and people are fussing but we won't turn on the spigots any time soon. A spot of night watering and that is it. 30% less. We hope. The results will be in when we get the bill.
In the house, we are saving on flushes and not doing much watering of the live plants out front.
We already put in fake bushes in the front section. And the evergreen grass.
It doesn't look bad and, as it becomes dryer, we look like heroes for not having any real grass at all.
Honestly not our intent but we will take a bow anyway.
And we are not planning on packing up and moving back east anytime soon either. We will stay with the plan.
