Yesterday was a beautiful spring day for walking to A’s and gardening.  I transplanted the hardened-off cilantro to the herb garden and lettuces/greens to the veg garden, then cultivated between all the rows, and watered everything in.  Of course right after that it poured for like 45 minutes, just to make sure everything was watered enough.

Everyone was busy getting stuff done, playing, running errands, or getting ready for tomorrow’s eclipse field trip.  It was charcuterie Sunday, wherein we all gather round to eat and meet about household planning, with varying degrees of engagement and amusement.  Eventually it all gets sorted, even the unclaimed vagrant socks.

Today I’m “home” doing homey stuff while the others travel south to one of the totality site events in MO, at a park where astronomers and science types will be setting up.  I’m glad the kids will get to experience this rare occurrence firsthand.
