Zinnias

Cooler today, thank goodness. I drove myself to Christchurch for the first time in 10 weeks. I was afraid if I didn’t do it soon I’d never pluck up the nerve to do it again. And I was keen to do some shopping on my own. I came home pleased, but wrecked, having done 13,000 steps, the most since before I had the flu last year.

By the time I thought of taking a photo the low clouds had lowered further, but the zinnias shone out in the gloom.
