I Know What You Did Last Summer 5/26/11

5/26/11 – Garden stuff before the expected rain (all weekend – Memorial Day weekend, that is. Boooooo.) Planted the weekly row of corn, weeded the whole thing and dug under the fence to 1) draw a definitive line with the grass that it shall not cross and 2) bury the fence to keep it in place and critters out. Today is also “city clean-up” day for us. All this week when the city picks up trash, they will also pick up anything else we leave at the curb with no volume limitations like every other week. This year, the only extra we have is one of those canvas, portable lawn chairs that are everywhere and come with a handy carrying pouch. It’s busted, but someone will probably scavenge it anyway. Other years, though, we have taken full advantage and unloaded a lot of crap, including the demo from renovation projects around the house. Some people rent dumpsters for that or make trips to the landfill. We have not.
