Inactivity always leads to introspection, and I’m simply no good when I’m not doing something. It will be splendid to fall asleep utterly exhausted from a long, strenuous slog.
The Birthday Boys, p. 91
Self is surprised that Bainbridge chose to make Scott only the third chapter (aren’t there two more to go?). She thought that Bainbridge would give the leader of the expedition, Scott, the place of honor, usually the end. Apparently not!

The garden’s pretty much done with flowers. Except for the euryops in the backyard. It started blooming BIG TIME about a week ago.
They are such homely flowers, but wow. This bush. It is monstrous. And the flowers have a sort of silky texture. Which isn’t the case with most euryops.
Much thanks to Cee Neuner for her Flower of the Day (FOTD) Challenge!
Backyard Champion, Reliably blooming year after year!
