Spent the afternoon with my Cub Scouts teaching them how to plant seeds and
care for them. It was a crack up watching these boys hesitate to dig their
bare hands into the wetted seed starting mix. They'll roll around on the
ground wrassling, but didn't want to stick their hands into "dirt".
Thankfully they got over the "yechs" in short order and we were all up to
our elbows in mud.
Should have some guys with 'maters this summer, and not a one of them want
to eat 'em...I told them they didn't have to eat them to get their badge,
they just had to grow them...they'll have a start on their compost piles.
A great day in Northern Michigan, cool winds and hot sun.
You all have a fine Easter, Me and mine will be dining at Red Lobster, not
traditional, but it won't be crowded :-)
