Hail!

Hail happens, even in Tucson, though rarely.  And here's the evidence.

I like hot-tubbing when the air is cold, but not sure about being hit by hail, even though the hail was a bit smaller than a marble.  Even my head isn't quite that hard...I think.

Didn't hide the patio stones but covered them pretty well.

Not only did this volunteer survive, it is thriving.  I've been pulling other little green stuff that sprouts between the patio stones but this one had the courage to bloom around the time I arrived...and will be there when I leave ... which will be soon.
