A nice lady about my age wanted to garden, she has never gardened before. She doesn't have any yard, so I said she could come over. After some thinking I said, "It's tulip season, if it's not snowing or raining, we'll plant tulips."
We did about 50 bulbs, lots of california poppies, datura, and columbine. Then she turned my compost pile! She WANTED to turn my compost pile!

I found a strange pumpkin at the asian market. Yes, gows I'm saving seeds, enough to share.

I like my new epoxy. It doesn't bubble.
