Today’s sad news, an outcome of dramatic high winds that battered and, eventually, smashed my plastic patio plant penguin, the 2-ft b&w sentinel that stood guard by my back door for some years, and before that watched over various very large potted plants.
I’m waiting for the winds to die down to assemble the pieces and put them in the trash. Then, in a few days we’re supposed to have more rainstorms, floods, and mudslides.
It seems that I have only one photo of the decedent, one that doesn’t show them to best advantage.
