then and now

[piranha]

didn't go kayaking today; couldn't sleep last night and then felt out of sorts all day today. also am feeling my muscles, so i decided a day of rest would be a good idea for them.

i did putter around in the garden a little, typing up the tomato plants a bit more now that they're starting to have some weight on them.

4 years ago in may, i had just planted the ornamental plum tree.



now it actually gives decent shade.



lots of experimentation in the front garden this year, i built several subirrigation containers, which are working out great. there will be more next year if we're still here.

I wish I had a kayak so much after your posts. I loved kayaking as a kid.

That plum tree's a beaut!

yeah, i am glad i bought one. i could just be renting ( did find a place locally that rents kayaks which will actually fit fat people), but then it would involve more planning than i am capable of. having it always with me will mean i'll use it a lot.
