"On a scale of 1 to 10... How glad are you that today is Friday?"

12! Everyday of the week is a 12! I am happy that it is "Today"

4 weeks into bootcamp. Curious what the data on average time spent in bootcamp is. There must be some variables involved with success rate of commitment milestones. Also other data regarding SKIP, PEP, etc.
While I haven't attempted to submit any BBs, I am aware of many that I could've completed simply by taking pictures, video, and formally completed a submission. I thought I would be doing that. It's less important to me now and I'm not complete sure why.

It got up to 86degF today. I'm definitely working on my tan.

112degF in the sauna for an hour... I think i lost 5 lbs of water weight!

Looking forward to farmers market tomorrow, a jelly filled donut, and possibly some bacon.
Thanks for the apples, the likes, and the comments.

B+ on the rocks. A if you can make a crescent moon, A++ if it happens to frame the actual moon. That would be some Mayan shit.

Stephen took us out for dinner to celebrate our 30 day commitment. Its a nice change of pace after almost 5 weeks to not cook or clean dishes, and it was free. Jasper's is nice enough small town restaurant. I had a grateful experience.

We have started planting corn for this year's 3 sisters Hugelkulture. Engineered some steps and ledges to access the tops. Even at my height the shirt side needed help. The tall side will need some serious improvement. I welcome the challenge and experience. More pics of ASAP. Here im holding an alfalfa plant removed with an amazingly long tap root. We will be leaving these in periodically when it doesn't impead the new plantings.

Also more flowers, mushrooms, and green things.

My wild flowers sprouts in solarium.

"Hugel Prime" getting lots of attention.

Changing the file name may seem like an unnecessary step but it helps find things on permies.  filling in the caption is optional but allows you to tell the story one picture at a time rather than before the pictures then we have to remember what you wrote as we study them.
I still have not started my thread on I have bigger mole hills than you do.  If you find one post it.
biggermolehill.jpg
If I ad not changed the name of this file i might not remember or recognize what it is about. I have large moles which I consider part of my permaculture soil rehydration plan.

Hi Jared (or JP). Sorry I am late to start following you. I always did my best to follow the boots.
And now I need to look if there are more (new) boots with threads on Permies.
