This was a really fun week for us.
The bike ride vineyard tour turned into going to one vineyard andhaving a couple samples and one of our program directors making uslunch. Then some of rode bikes to a swimming hole while others drove. Grant's pedal fell off part way through the "2-3" mile ride whichturn into 6-7s. The water was running really fast. It was pleasant.On Monday, we moved the irrigation pipes back to the radishes in orderto apply 7 million nematodes to control the cabbage worm. Then westarted trimming the sheep hooves and prepared a new pasture for them. We finished up trimming on Tuesday. We potted some pumpkins, cabasamelons, cantaloupes, cucumber, and zucchini for us to eat. We alsostarted weeding the home garden. On Wednesday, we babysat the kidswho were sick for a few hours and then started weeding the lettucecrop. We learned how to run the BCS tiller. On Thursday, we set upirrigation, moved chickens, and thinned radishes. Friday was arelaxing day. We planted tomatoes, basil, and peppers in greenhousebeds for fall harvest. We also weeded some gallon pots of Oregongrape that we are growing for a local nursery. Most of the day wasspent getting the nursery ready for summer. We rearranged the trees,weeded a little, and composted the trees that died in the heat wave.
Today we will be going to a birthday party, and tomorrow we are takingsome interns climbing.
