Weather here in Central Missouri was very pleasant, for the most part, over the past week. Then came the weekend and with it some very bad weather. In Misery alone there were 19 tornadoes confirmed on the ground, 12 people killed, massive property destruction. I’ve heard reports of up to 40 dead overall in Misery, Arkansas, Mississipi, and Alabama, along with several more in Texas/Oklahoma/Kansa due to wildfires and dust storms. Very ugly business.
We were spared the worst of it. No damage to buildings or livestock. We spent half a day cutting up deadfall and hauling it off to the sippy hole. Lots of people not so lucky.
I’ve got lettuce planted in the little greenhouse, and I started watering the ground beds in the greenhouse to get them ready for spinach seed. I’d have planted that yesterday but I don’t have any seed. I’m going to swing by Lowe’s later today when I’m in town for my PT appt to grab some lumber to build a couple raised beds. I’ll get the spinach seed while I’m there and toss it in the dirt after I get home.
It feels good to see the ‘move the garden’ plan finally coming together...
