WHAT WOULD I DO WITHOUT GOOGLE?

Well, trudge to the library I guess.  I have algae on the pool rim so it would be a library book or look for the video and box of chemicals from the pool company who built the pool.  That was 18 years ago.  What are those chances?  Maybe if I asked my brain to work on their location when I take a nap..?

 But why do that when I can Google?   I found a great article......http://www.ehow.com/how_6403273_clean-algae-pool-walls.html
Now I can converse intelligently with the experts at the pool store if necessary.

It was very pleasant working out there today.  We have 5 Hummer feeders and they zip back and forth over our heads, being very territorial and chasing each other away.  Sometimes I sit very quietly with my camera in hopes of getting a few great shots.  Here are the latest from a few days ago.

A Verdin visitor

 The Finches discovered a place on one feeder for their bigger beaks to get a sip.

Waiting for a turn.

Here's the spot.

On guard.

 I think this is the Anna's  Hummingbird.

Hubby's back is acting up and I'm cleaning up for Father's Day.  We've had quite a few dust storms since I've dusted off the patio swing. Our daughter helped sweep the pool this morning and then joined me at the swing.  I had noticed a spider web on  the underside and was busy getting the sticky web off  when she screamed "Black Widow"!  It was big!  So were her eggs and our daughter's eyes.

Gee, I hope she'll come back tomorrow.
