I grew up with rhubarb in the yard in the Puget Sound area, was never really a fan. But maybe something else from up there. What else is Michigan noted for? Cheese? Apples? Maybe a shipped-frozen Chinook salmon. :-)

It seems astonishing that Charmion is just about to load up and move out. Wasn't it just a couple of months ago that this all started? Whoosh!

The back lawn closest to the house and greenhouse got mowed this afternoon. I didn't have time for more, but I did a different section last week so there's only one spot that needs mowing tomorrow. Some wasps began dive-bombing so I stopped before I was finished. There's a bad air alert up for tomorrow, but it'll only take a few minutes.
