Strawberries part 2

Z and I went to see my protege to pick up some things we were storing at her place.  Social distancing can be hard.  I am a person who likes to hug.  It is hard to see friends that I would normally share a hug with and not be able to do so.  It is good that the majority of my friends are being cautious and doing the right thing by wearing a mask and social distancing.  It is hard to not be able to sit by a fire and share a story.  I think we are getting closer to being able to try this, with masks and at a distance.  We had other friends come by today and give us some things--Outside, with masks-- and had a short wander on the property.  

The strawberries are planted!  I forgot to take pictures.  I gave them a lot of room in hopes that they will spread.  Now comes the task of keeping up with the weeding and watering.  I'm hoping to find the right rocks to place within them as stepping stones.  It got to the point that I was feeling bad about pulling so many of the flowering weeds to make room.  I'm going to try to watch for the time after these weeds are done blooming and before they seed to pull more out.  The bugs and bees seem to like this weed.  Hopefully the bees will like the strawberries too.  Strawberries and seeing friends, even with a mask on, are my happy things for today.

K made that table with a little bit of help from  Z and C.


Wash your hands!
