A gardener’s work is never done
I did a variety of yardwork activities after slathering on a good layer of sunscreen.
- Helped Bob install a new drip irrigation section in the garden
- Planted a 2nd round of bush beans (the first planting is just past the dicot emergence stage)
- Pulled a bunch of weeds
- Harvested lettuce
- Trained tomatoes
- Prepped pots & garden mounds with soil for a forthcoming dibbling of cucumber seedlings
- Bathed the stinky-head dog
- Moved a bunch of broken concrete to later use as boulder shims
- Â Did I say pulled weeds?
- Watered
- Planted some ornamentals
- Cut back early blooming perennials that are finished for the season
- Moved some garden art so we can see it now
I think I’ve taken “stinky dog’s†place in the hierarchy of “who need the shower most in this house†game. I may have to find a cold beer to take with me! Boy that sun is great!
