June planting and construction

June 1, 2019 ~ M Ress ~ 4 Comments

Well the jury's out on the ladybug's overall effectiveness, but that didn't mean I could rest on my laurels. Again the siren call of my discount... The Kentucky wonder beans I've been growing from seed look awful.

Tomorrow when the weather isn't quite so melting for a delicate hominid as myself, I have a few tasks. Chief among them is … Continue reading Captain’s log: November 1st 2018
