We’ve been inundated with a particularly loathsome fungus, and one of the garden centers suggested sweetening the soil to discourage them. So, yesterday, I put some limestone on the worst infestation, to the right of the front stairs.
We had a nice, busy day. I dropped off one of Ron’s prescriptions, dumped some junk at the transfer station and picked up “caution” tape at Botello’s to mark the property line for underbrush clearing.
Ron tried to repair the bench that I dumpstered out of Mark’s yard, but the legs are too far gone. The top is made of mahogany slats, though, so we saved those. The sander is shot.
We attended the semi-annual owners’ SPEA meeting and stopped by Edgewater to check out the lawn. The back yard needs more fill; Ron will call on Monday. We brought Emme with us. We stopped off at a yard sale at the Wing School, and Ron treated to lunch at Chew’s. Then Emme and I took walks along the canal.
She got so far ahead of me at one point that I asked a bike rider to please tell her to come back. Otherwise, I believe she’d have walked the whole way to Bourne.
I got to see Tonka for the first time; he is gorgeous, beautiful grey fur and green and yellow eyes.
We brought four bags of soda bottles to the redemption center; Peter said to keep the cash for Emme’s lunch. We picked up Ron’s prescription, did laundry and watched the second half of “The Corporation”.
