Told myself I would drive to West Point today if I woke up at 6. Given Clem was howling for Rob at 1am and Rosie was taking advantage of his absence to face paw me at every opportunity, there was no way that was going to happen. I eventually bribed them with food at about 1.30 and they shut up.
Took advantage in the afternoon of the gorgeous day by going up to West Rock. I got summer tummy, but it was worth it. Turkey vultures are a lot less ugly in the air than on the ground.

Lab was entirely unsuccessful so I came home and went for the only thing my brain could manage - a 70% easy jog. This is officially the best week of the year weather wise - warm enough for shorts, not hot, blossom everywhere, green bits increasing by the second. Very glad to get out, even if four days of lab stress and inactivity has led to me feeling about 70 years old.
Had another relaxing evening gardening instead of training. Lots of progress, even have germination from the dreaded parsley and almost as slow dill now. Soon I will have to thin the lettuce and beetroot. Peas are growing at a cracking rate. I wish it would get warmer overnight as it would be good to get my peppers and things out for a couple of hours a day- they're looking a bit light deprived, but there's no point until I have half a chance of getting them outside. That will have a wait a while yet!
