All Planted and Headed to Italy

All of the vegetable plants are in place. There are 4 tomatoes, 3 peppers (habanero, jalapeno, mini bell), a Crimson Sweet watermelon, and a struggling artichoke. The fabric planters worked well in the interim. I will eventually replace those with galvanized steel planters. 


How the L shaped planter looks in the garden area. On the 90+ days of summer, I also moisten the straw around the planters.  


Working hard toward performance level tap dancing. I am starting to improve after two months of three days a week of instruction. If the steps could become second nature to me, then I could add some flare to the routines. The group I am practicing with might have a public performance in the near future. 

I have also applied as a volunteer with our local community services organization. There is an upcoming 25th Annual Summer Spectacular event at the lake end of this month. They sent out an email blast on a call for volunteers, and since I attend a number of events at the center, my name probably came up. 

Took a trip to the local travel agency and booked a trip to Southern Italy and Sicily for the end of April 2027. I tried to do the internet stuff but found it frustrating. So much better to sit down with a REAL PERSON and talk about something so important as a vacation. It will be the first of many trips I hope to take now and into the future.
