Out and About

Today's another 3 day weekend, which I'm really beginning to enjoy.
I decided to finally buy a plant stand that I'd seen on Craigslist for a few months. The seller was a) a woman b) super nice c) not crazy. We had a really nice chat in the morning heat.


Since I was in one of the old neighborhoods, I decided to go to Foster's Freeze. Hadn't been in years. They have so much stuff! Who knew there was a Red Bull slushie? That should not be such a thing, but I imagine it's pretty popular.
I had a small vanilla cone, dipped. It immediately started bursting through its chocolate barrier and making for the sidewalk. Warm and relatively quiet in the shade, I ate as much and as quickly as I could. It reminded me of sitting half out of the passenger seat of a rental car in the parking lot of Leonard's Malasadas.
Then I brought my new friend home and put existing plants in it, as a proof of concept. I think it will work, although my pots are mostly the wrong sizes. Also you need to work from the ground up in order to get the pots in. 

It's a thing. 

But I think I'll enjoy making it nice.
