Perhaps to call these "stragglers" isn't quite fair - that suggests a kind of sluggish tardiness, like the tail end of the runners who one sees coming out of John Marshall High School, near us in Los Feliz, who are clearly pitched out periodically to Go On a Run. They are more like late season flowering miracles, caused by my watering them again, and also by a few fairly warm days. Thank goodness for the warmth - which will itself dwindle - because there's still no sign of plumbers. I'm promised them tomorrow ...
