May 22, 2007 Splitting Hostas

The day is so beauty and warm. But it is as if my house has conspired against me, because I have to do some plumbing work. A pipe behind a wall has sprung a leak and needs to be fixed.

My friends Carol and Dave came over because I have offered them some of my hostas. If wealth were measured in hostas I would be very comfortable. Carol and Dave dig and split some of my numerous varieties, as I complete the replacement of my leaky pipe. Thankfully my craft is adequate and none of the copper leaks. Together we go for a quick hike. They enjoy the view from the lookout, and the singing of the Blue-headed Vireo, and Wood Thrush. Visibility is 15 miles or so with detail. 25 miles absolute . The sun is bright but there is again a high overcast. Another "cloudy" day in NE Ohio.
