Since I have returned I have been eating from the bounty of the greenhouse. Lettuce and spinach for salad, crispy sugar snap peas, and a bunch of large bright red strawberries. I took the watering tubes out now that I am back and I won’t plant anything more till I return from my summer trip. The peas will produce for a couple more weeks, and the tomato plants are doing well, both with fruit on them. I should get some fresh tomatoes before I leave.
I worked on a poem about solar power this morning and want to write many before I return in the fall. I talked to Bill Rudge at the New York DEC and told him I would be willing to do another article on a pressing issue. He welcomed my offer and he said he would get back to me.
