Sea Weeding

Hello!! It was a lovely Sunday  – for most of the day!
I slipped down to Wynyard Beach to see if I could get some seaweed for the garden

It was a bit scrappy – thin covering over rocks rather than the nice big banks of it!
Still… I found a reasonable place to fill up some bags

Few extra calories lost as the wet seaweed is a bit harder to haul up the beach through the soft sand.
The tide was coming in faster than I estimated so I only filled about 14 bags

Little bit of a rainbow told me some rain was about

It rained on and off for the rest of the afternoon – but I did get home and mulch that patch of garlic, then worked on the recently weeded raised beds

A slight challenge with the wind this afternoon, but eventually got there

I am hoping this makes my life a lot easier in spring.

It really got too soggy to get into another job outside today – so contented myself by doing some vacuuming and baking a cake (which I promised to take in to share with my fellow jurors tomorrow since it should be our last day!)

A small job here and there keeps the work steadily progressing.
I may be ready by the time spring gets here… you never know!

Cheers!
