Just in Time before the Rain...



We had some good, wholesome fun in the Lapham Garden on Tue. night. LOTS of weeding, pruning a sage, and, everyone's favorite, the compost pile. What a fabulous, stinky, STEAMING mess it was! Trace & Asher did tons of hard work pulling the pile apart, then Chris & I added 4 buckets of egg shells & coffee grounds and a big bag of carrot peels from Mermaid. Lucky Chris made it all the way through on account of his low zinc problem. We had blisters, nosebleeds, and a break for sandwiches. The elusive Shadowy Shanooners was sighted. Hazel tried to capture her (see side pic) but, as always, was unsuccessful. Lapham Parent Randy turned a huge section of the garden over while his son Trace turned the compost and weeded....
