the ground has been so wet i wasnt sure i would ever get anything planted. the ground is kinda workable. so i tilled up where new ground was broke this spring. i planted tomatoes, habenero peppers, green peppers, cucumbers, zuchinni and green beans. i also planted some injun beans on a trellise that runs up the front of my chicken house. then i planted some gourds in front of my tool shed. i will wait a little while to plant my corn and pumpkins. i definitely will have them in before my next road trip. my strawberry plants are flowering. my sage, cilantro and dill came up on its own. so did my tobacco. i will transplant it to the new ground.
i was hoping to find some plants at the flea market this past weekend. i went to sparks and white cloud. they advertised that they would have over 400 booths. i didnt find any plants for my garden. so i had to go to the greenhouse where i usually get them.
while i was at white cloud i checked out their casino. havent been there before, so i signed up for a players card. it is my birthday this month so i got a buffet pass. i used it that day. i had catfish. i will go check out all the injun casinos since they give a free buffet pass if it is your birth month. dont know what them free buffets will cost me in the end. gotta make sure i keep my walking up. i gotta watch my weight.
i dont know what to think of the swine flu scare. seems like some people enjoy keeping the populace living in fear. first we had to be afraid of terrorists, then the economy. now we must fear we will catch a flu that may be a killer. i remember hearing about swine flu about 30 years ago. i guess no one has done anything about it. it is back and scaring the hell out of people. if it aint one damn thing its another.
i have been getting a buncha graduation invitations. i have alot of relatives that are graduating. i have more relatives than a politician running for office. some are even having cookouts. injuns sure like to eat.
kinda up for my next road trip. i am heading to quincy illinois. it is a bus tour of about 20 or so burial mounds. some archaelogists will do a running commentary of the whole tour. thats sounds interesting. i like to study ancient civilizations. i am sure i will learn something.
it is suppose to rain some more tonight and then this week. i imagine the water will just run off since it wont soak up. i noticed when i was out mushroom hunting that the weeds in the timber were getting tall. i only went twice. had my fill of them. there was evidence of lots of water running everywhere. probably will be wishing for some rain later this summer. gotta take what comes.
