Nice view of San Francisco, bridges, & bay just after takeoff of our flight up the coast following an early morning layover at SFO. Going to spend a week away from the insufferable TX heat up in the blissfully cool northern Cali coast & redwoods, our first real travel vacation together since before the pandemic.

Globe amaranth 'Fireworks' (Gomphrena globosa), from a pot on the back patio, another plant that seems to thrive with the heat, or despite it.
