Make thhis summer the One to Remember!
Summer is almost here. So now is the time to plan to take advantage of all those precious days. Here are a list of 21 things to help you enjoy the summer to the fullest!
1. Take a hike.
2. Read a biography.
3. Make real lemonade.
4. Have a Block Party. A great way to get to know your neighbors better and introduce them to the gospel!
5. Go on a fieldtrip. Pretend you're in school and go to a place you would go on a school fieldtrip. A museum, aquarium, farm, factory. The yellow pages is a great place to find places to visit. Just look under museum or factory for a start.
6. Sleep outside. August is great for this since you can see so many falling stars. Going to the desert or up to Ramona is better to get away from the city lights where you can see more stars.
7. Go to a drive in movie.
8. have a yard sale.
9. Swim!
10. Eat homemade ice cream at sunset.
11.Attend a concert in the park. See earlier post on this very subject!
12. Go horseback riding.
13. Visit an amusement park. Look for discounts at grocery stores or see if AAA card gets yu in cheaper.
14.Attend a festival. Like apples in Julian, garlic in Gilroy, etc. Google festivals in Ca.
15. Shop at a Farmers Market.
16. Pick fresh fruit. Then make jam or ice cream or fruit leather with it!
17. Clean up a park or some other service project.
18. build a fort.
19. Go to the County Fair. Remember those $2.00 tickets! for June 14.
20. Stargaze.
21. Compete in a race, walk a thon or trialtalon.
Doesn't that sound like a great summer?

Water Wise Plants
With the water rate increase we are all looking at for this summer I thought it might be good to look at some beautiful plants that don't need a lot of water. First of all a water wise planting IS NOT GRASS. So if you have a area large enough to play touch football on, like I do, you should think about doing something else with that piece of land. Plant a tree, build a patio, plant a vegetable garden, and a least get a return for your money, or plant water wise plants there intead of grass. Here are a few suggestions from the Union Tribune:
A. Long blooming perrenials
1.Rosita hummingbird mint
2. compact pineleaf penstemon
3.English lavendar "Sharon Roberts
4. Evening Primrose"Shimmer"
5. Blue Spires Rissian Sage
6. Salvia Ultra violet
7. Giant flowered purple sage
8. "OOLALa" bougainvillea
9. Rockrose "Bennett White"
10.Lantana"Teenie Greenie"
Don't be afraid to go to Walter ANderson or some other nice nursery and ask to see these flowers and plants. Ask what kind of soil is best for them and light requirements. That's what all those people are there for! All you have to say you are looking for ideas, but you are not ready to buy. When you are you don't have to go back there, or you might if they are the only place you can find the chosen plants! They may have some great suggestions for you too.

This is a book about a Dad's quest to make food interesting to his celiac impared child. Then I see there is a blog site for the celiac inclined called http://glutenfreegirl.blogspot.com. This is a geat site to get gluten free recipes, tips and stories for the gluten impaired. Check it out !
