21 June 2010

Woke up this Monday morning to go exercise my muscles and social skills with the Norfolk Master Gardener volunteers. Invited my wife to go and sit with us but she refused. Went and weeded, tied up some plants and just learned more about Gill and Jim. Gill spent 32 years in the Navy as a master chief and retired - he must be in his 70's. I asked him how long he has been gardening and he says he has a picture of himself at the age of 2 with a shovel and a rake. Jim is medically handicapped due to a water accident he had. He is a farmer of some type. The barnyard garden is impressive with corn over 10' tall and the rest of the garden is starting to produce.

Was thinking of my Pizza Hut shirt - doesn't wrinkle and doesn't show my sweat. So went to Bass Pro Shop and attempted to purchase two similar shirts from them. We will see if I got the correct ones or that I had to go to the $60 shirt price range. I hope I did well.

I also bought a DVD on bass fishing. Since I have never bass fished I figure it would behoove me to get some lessons under my belt. I really hardly know anything about fishing so maybe I can be taught and become more proficient that way - at least that is the plan.

Tomorrow we attack the yard again and cut down the biggest and worst stuff. bringing it all under control eventually. Or at least to a dull roar.
