Sunday


Peter and Henry fixed a flat tire on the tractor, and Wavy and I spread hay as mulch in the second greenhouse today. As you can see the second greenhouse is mostly planted. The first is already full.
In the mailbag, Susan sent a link to a good post about the farm subsidy mess. Also, Maxine -- with the caveat that she is not an expert on spiders, id'ed that spider as a barn spider. "Maybe it is (Araneus cavaticus) aka the barn spider. This spider is of particular significance to Charlotte's Web. Charlotte's full name was Charlotte A. Cavatica and one of her daughters was Aranea."
