Yard and Garden

Planted some grass (covered with straw) worked on some flower beds and prepared some pots among other things. It is nice to work in the yard. I fenced off and prepared the raspberry bed that Tun-Tun had destroyed in the past, claiming the area as his favorite nap pad. Misao says she read on the internet about food shortages coming and wants to plant as many vegetables as possible. I was looking into worm farms for bait and they produce a good fertilizer. There are always those upside down planting things too. All things that cost money that is in short supply. But we have plenty of plastic buckets. The first peach blossoms opened when the sun came out at the end of a gloomy Thursday. I'll have to do some watering when I'm done here.

Trail work is in full swing but my schedule and a lack of vehicle has kept me from participating yet this year. Took another nice ride this afternoon. Alois has converted his mountain bike into his urban transport bike due to the conditions of the roads and paths in Munich. Too bumpy. Wider tires are comfortable but if you are on a long trip and get a flat a road tire needs a lot less air than an MTB tire. Something to think about when you're working your hand pump.

Misao was telling me about something on health she heard on the internet, or radio or somewhere and concluded quoting; "Nuts are life, chips are death."

"Nuts are expensive, chips are cheap." I answered.

Everything costs something.
