Work and Fun
Apr. 27th, 2008 04:11 pmWas good, and did a bit of data collection this weekend. Went out yesterday afternoon, but forgot the battery. As it was almost 5, asked my helpers (Zach and Curt) if they had plans for this morning. They didn't, and so we went out around 9. Was back by noon, with 6 files of GPR to process. Went fast, despite the stupid jokes.
Bought leek seeds on the way home. It is a bit late to start them (usually start seeds 4-6 weeks before transferring to the garden), but figured at $2 I could at least try. I'd be kicking myself if I didn't.
After a breakfast of brownies and tea, biked out to Sunrise greenhouse (for the third time this spring) for a few more plants. Bought three more tomatoes (some of the free ones died, and found Early girls which already had flowers), a few more peppers (a couple of sweet, one hot), Thai basil (for my Thai curry), chives, cilantro (I'll get some to last one of these years), and strawberries (another pot for the patch by the tree, since last years ones came back, but could be a bit thicker). Planted it all, including lettuce, spinach, green onion and cucumber seeds. Still got some room in the main patch. I figure I'll hit the bigstore greenhouses as they're closing up, and put whatever I find on sale (wouldn't mind more herbs).
