thanateLast Sunday (easter) my parents came up & my mother and I went to the aquarium (which was horribly crowded) while my father and grauwulf wandered through the Torsk (which was not.)
Monday was more or less normal; Tuesday's master naturalist class started an hour earlier than usual, as the first speaker had to teach a class in the early afternoon. On Wednesday I headed out ridiculously early to drive down to a Nature Conservancy property on the eastern shore for two days of replanting atlantic white cedars & short-leaved pine in cleared bits of an old loblolly pine plantation.
This morning I got up early to go fetch pond plants from Wicklein Water Gardens, as they kindly let me e-mail a plant list and go pick them up, instead of dealing with shipping. Now I need to get the wet ones into the pond, and then (if my head hasn't exploded or anything-- spending a couple days in pine woods seems to have set me back in trying to adjust to the oak pollen) I have a free ticket to the craft fair in Gaithersburg this weekend. I've also got the lawn to mow (since we once again have a working mower, after the one I bought last year met with an unfortunate construction-related accident) and a story I'd like to poke at again before sending it to Sword & Sorceress, which just re-opened submissions.
Tomorrow there's a local stream clean-up, and then on Sunday there's the farmer's market, and then![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aanna_t is in DC, so I'll be driving down to go hang out with her & her children for Sunday and/or Monday, TBD.
Then Tuesday is master naturalist again, and Wednesday is the first field trip day for that, and Thursday I will actually be there for my scheduled aquarium day.
Friday (a week from today) I think I will spend asleep. We'll see.
