VEISHEA is the annual spring celebration at Iowa State University, my alma mater, and there are always a ton of events on campus geared towards Iowa State families. Parade, cherry pies, concerts, booths, art exhibits and demonstrations, open houses at all the colleges... and on and on... it's usually really fun, but almost every time I've gone to VEISHEA it's a cool, drizzly, rainy weekend. When I was a student I even spent one VEISHEA Saturday walking around to all the events wrapped in a blanket. That's why a cool, rainy weekend in April always makes me think I should be on campus with thousands of other Cyclones.
We've got a slow, cloudy Sunday morning going on here at our house. Stayed up pretty late last night, partly due to the storm, but mostly because of a late-night (10pm, late for me!) phone call from a friend I haven't talked to in a long time. We chatted for almost an hour an a half while the rain, thunder, and lightning came down outside. I don't mind being a little tired today!
Finished the first garden box yesterday before the rain-- now on to the strawberry pyramid that's going on top of it.
So what plants are planned for this box? It's always nice to chat with an old friend! Keep in touch with the girls!
ReplyDeleteThis is the box for the strawberries-- it's going to have a border of strawberries at box-level and then the pyramid in the center. It's going to be berrytastic!
