What are you doing today?

I got my garden planted this morning. We finally had a few days of warm and dry weather so the garden wasn't too muddy. I planted cucumbers, cantaloupe, radishes, and broccoli....the grape tomatoes are barely sprouting, so they will go in next week. Now, more rain is coming this evening, and minor showers for the next few days, which should give the seeds a good start.
 

I got out late morning to take a ride and the motorcycle would barely turn over. It did eventually catch but there should be no hesitation. Putting a charger on it showed the battery wasn't taking a charge, which is the classic symptom of a weak or dead battery cell. So, I set about doing a battery swap from the other GS. Getting all the leads on and packed into the small space so the clamps and cover go on is always interesting.

It eventually went back together and I got out for a short ride. Mother nature threw some spitting rain my way, which set in motion events that led to my meeting a man of immense, artistic talent. That is a subject for another thread (it will be put in Art, Anything Goes) but I am going through the pictures of his work with more than a little amazement.

We've been to the hairdresser for the first time in who knows how long - woohoo!!

OMG I can't believe how gorgeous we look 🤪

Bought some more seeds - zinnia, meadow mix and cornflower plus plants for the garden. My sunflower, artichoke and sweet pea seeds are starting to come up
 
This is the last day of our quarantine. Tomorrow we can go for a walk to and along the beach with our dogs and drive to town to get a few things. My garden is ready for seedlings. I’ll buy them this year but next year I’d like to start them myself from seeds.

I’m sooo excited to get released and allow the dogs a good run. Our youngest dog has never seen the ocean so there will be a few firsts happening tomorrow. I’ll make sure to take pictures. Now we can also get our internet upgraded so I can share my photos.

Today I’m mowing around the raised beds. I was going to do the ‘No mow May’ thing but this is a neglected garden that needs some serious TLC and now. I should have done a before & after.
Sorry for the ramble. 🙃Lol
