Still working at taking Wednesdays off, and I've done pretty well today (aside from a dozen phone calls, 4-5 emails and a trip to the post office to take care of the mailers we're sending out). Still, Lora's always wanted to live the "Little House On The Praire" life - make her own clothes, grow her own food, etc. Me, the closest I get is "fresh" fruit and vegetables and hand-me-downs. But that doesn't matter since I'll do almost anything for my wife.
That means that I borrowed a roto-tiller and spent a little time tilling up the ground. We're starting small this year, but I'm actually excited about it. There's just something about growing your own food. It's going to be a bit of work though - and that's why we have kids! Roots and vines need to be pulled and stuff planted. Maybe by the end of the weekend.
After I got in and showered, I checked out the news and guess what? There was a tornado about 4 miles away and 1.5 - 2 inch hail just up the road! And all we got here was a bunch of thunder and a few sprinkles. Go figure. All in all it was a great day for gardening.

Woohoo Jason!! When can we expect some fresh veggies. I always make a good attempt at a garden, but have problems keeping it going. It is about time for me to make my annual donation to Lowes for my attempts!
We got a bunch of hail here just down the road from you!
