Covid Journal: 27 days in

Sprouts

Wednesday April 8 was exciting, as the sugar snap peas I’d planted weeks before finally popped above the dirt level in my raised bed garden. The temperature got up to 72 degrees F, and it was sunny all day. Meanwhile, the chile peppers I started in a mini greenhouse box have also begun sprouting. I’ve moved them outside for the purposes of (1) getting them acclimated to the outdoor temperature fluctuations and (2) taking maximum benefit from the warm sunshine.

I worked in the community garden for a couple hours, moving wood chips and spreading them for walkways. I feel thoroughly beat up now, but in a good way. Just getting outside in nice weather and doing something, even alone, feels fine.

I’m a regular guy that happens to like bicycling. I don’t look down my nose at people that don’t bike, or only bike casually, or aren’t into sacrificing their body/money/time/safety/sanity for the sake of biking. I have many other interests besides biking...but biking is the focus of this blog...other interests may come up incidentally.
