Packing for the weekend....

53*, 62% humidity, NNW 13 mph wind, sunny

Here I go, packing for another adventure. I leave Friday morning and I can't wait. Who ever said gardeners are rooted in one place? Not me! In any case I hope to see plenty of wildflowers where I am going, as well as sun and fun.

But before I go, I must top everything off with water including the critters (who we have a sitter for) and my plants indoors and out. I am hoping none of my plants will dry out and die this time but I will not be gone as long as I was in CA. I am also hoping my sitter doesn't have any trouble with my dog, who seems to have a VERY bad case of GAS lately. Really, I don't want to be gross here, but it will be VERY NICE to get some fresh air.

Out in the garden I shall water the seed beds before I go, and I hope the mourning doves leave my zinnia seeds alone. I caught one pecking around and eating my seeds this morning and I promptly ran outside with some bird scare tape that I have had since I moved from CA....(I haven't had to use it until now!) I hope it works and keeps busy little peckers from nabbing my future zinnias and sunflowers while I am gone.

Everyone, have a nice weekend!
