    Done! Including 2 concerts, an annual report, a garden, and a grant application.  Looking forward to a "grand" time with grandchildren.

    Walked to the sacred music concert at Grace Lutheran church.  What a gift for the whole community.

    Went to Touch a Truck.  A lot of fun. And I finally got a good picture of a pot nanny at work. See images.

    I finished filling my flowerpots and saved the plastic plant containers to get a discount on microgreens. I had repainted 2 pots with a crazy idea I had for a paint job. See image. I put recycled wine bottles in pot nannies.  Oh, the effort of getting those wine bottles emptied.

      One of the microgreens places at the farmers ' market appreciates plastic pots. In some towns, you can bring your plastic pots back to your local nurseries and get stuff, or karma, from them.

      I had no idea anyone would re-use the plastic plant containers - and personally, I have no problem emptying wine bottles!!  I love Two Vines from Washington State!  :)

    Never went on that walk yesterday because it started raining hard. But we did go have ice cream and shakes and we brought back the plastic to recycle instead of throwing them in the trash.

      It did rain- wow!  Try to remember your sustainable, reusable straws and challenge yourself to avoid single use plastics.  Hope you enjoy beautiful walks the next day or so before rain returns.   :)

    Almost done. I'm looking forward to "Touch a Truck." Also, I hope to see you at our Appleaires concert, "I've Got Rhythm.!"  May 17, 7 PM, Grace Lutheran Church in Wenatchee.  Singing is a great way to improve lung function, exercise,  and relieve stress. And it doesn't require a lot of equipment or external energy!

    Microrecycling today. Harvested seeds from my last batch of salsa verde, and now am planting a new batch of tomatillo seedlings for next fall's salsa verde.

      Hoorah - I think tomatoes, peppers, herbs are so awesome home grown.  Good on you!  I'm looking forward to the harvest, though the year is going fast enough!
