another 5 hour day…but this time completely…no Child Gardening. just steady. There's not much to show for it, ie: pics, nothing you don't see in your own gardens. plants are plants. But, either in the ground or in pots: tomatoes squashes,straight and crook neck zucchini egg plant . Tomatoe cages tied in place. cucumber seedlings planted (in case my seeds fail. Looking as i type this…doesn't seem like much…
and then, am keeping notes this time (?) , other years i've begun then don't , this time….we'll see. Even small growing details.
Does anyone know things about Plantain? All along i have been sure that i know this plant, that it's growing randomly, the narrow leaf….one time a broad leaf, but not in last 2 years… i'm pretty sure there's still broad leaf down in the rooster swamp… but i looked it up today and now i'm not sure this is it. Pics tomorrow. Does anyone make their own medicinals? ie salves? I have always thought you have to be a Magic Person for that…but?, ?, maybe things like i need, are forgiving????? i could LEARN?
that little vase, to show Alyssia….it's Miner's Lettuce. Why Goats do not eat it is our Mystery, but i'd been watching a small
cluster as i sit in the Resting Chair by Nogal's forest. Watching…not really, but just it's There and i am resting and breathing and just looking at nothing on purpose…i watch the tiny ants there, but i noticed recently that it creates these very beauty Full litte kind of seed pouches, heart shaped, toward the end of it's seasonal Time and this is an example of the surprise that all of a sudden, at this point in its lifetime/seasonal time the Goats DO eat it! !
and the Robins continue. almost ever present, just outside the door…? Robinda and her manRobin.
I might leave the door open tonight. 57 degrees.
