choclo

choclo Speaking of choclo, I just watered mine and did some weeding and picked a nice salad for later when the leaves likely to be wilty. Like getting promising young plants cleared of weeds and competition. A lot of fantasizing about future meals. Have now been getting a few small tomatoes a day, and not enough peppers. Life is exiting and full of anticipation. As long as I have arugala for my salads, I'm happy- and I'm harvesting plenty of it- yumm. I'm happy! Cucumbers are also on their way and I have been giving away chard and lettace. The corn gets harvested in the fall- simularly to politics- more corn on its way

choclo Bad news again in Lebanon. Back in 1964, when I spent 3 months hitch hiking around Syria, Jordan and Turkey, Lebanon was an island of peace and prosperity where the various religious communities lived in peace. During that same year of travelling , I also passed through Yugoslavia, which also came apart in spasims of violence. So sad. So bad for the children

Goa chai party at Gypsie's

good music- Neptune is talented. Got to see him try out his new high speed unicycle at Bob's the other day, as well as listening to him jam on his Indian jews harp with Fast Eddy on his harmonica. A nice summer happening.
