Volleyball and blooms

Greta got her new volleyball pictures.  She’s in grade 8.  

Ada got to go on first field trip.  She visited a farm.  Erin told her she might get to milk a cow like I did growing up.  I can say—not fun.  I hated it.  She and Erin watched a cooking show.  The cook was elderly.  Ada said—she’s old like Gigi 💙 

My friend Margaret had these hydrangeas  blooming in her yard yesterday!  Hydrangea means water jar in Greek.  They need lots of water.  Their color partly depends on the acidity of the  soil.  More acid more blue, less acid more pink! They are a native to Asia.  Leaves contain cyanide!  They are deadly.
