Editor's Wife and Local Christmas Cactus Bloom Noted
The editor reports success with Christmas cactus plants after placing one in sunlit rooms and the other in a sunlit living area. Buds appeared on both, suggesting light sensitivity may be less strict than once thought. A lighthearted note about local wildlife includes a flicker on the lawn and a blackbird tuning the TV antenna. Nearby visits and social notes follow, including guests, trips, and anniversary celebrations.
