\"A<\/a>
A Nice Day at the Farmers Market<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This morning was one of those severe clear days … not a cloud in the sky to be found anywhere. It was definitely a marked change from last week when we bailed ou<\/a>t of the market mid-morning. I did make up a couple of posters that helped as people walked by. The attendance at the market today was just fair, but I expect that’ll pick up as the month progresses.<\/p>\n

I did make my first sale of a raised garden bed<\/a>, however. The lady stopped by to look at them last week, and came back this week with the intention of buying one. I was very happy to sell her a garden bed. It’s already made, I just need to stain it once more and then deliver it.<\/p>\n

Quite a few other people stopped to look and ask questions. The price tag is high enough that people probably have to look and then think about it for a while. Perhaps next week we’ll reap this week’s plantings? Poor metaphor, I know.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>
The Line for Star Trek Enterprise<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The new Star Trek Enterprise<\/a> movie’s official opening date was on Friday. I ordered tickets online at Fandango for the 4:30 p.m. showing on Friday afternoon figuring it would be after the rabid crowds but before the school kids and working parents would go. That turned out to be a very good decision. The theater was about half full and we had good seats for a fabulous movie. It was over way too soon. Definitely lots of room for sequels! I’ll definitely go see it again. When we came out of the theater, there was quite a line to get in for the next showing. I rather like being able to go to the movie in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

When we were living in Colorado Springs and the Lord of the Rings movies were coming out, I’d take my entire staff (except for one or two people who had to stay behind to keep the lights on … and they got free passes for later) to go see them. I hear about that every once in a while from someone who used to work for me. It’s something that costs nothing and builds great relationships.<\/p>\n

It’s now late Saturday evening and we’re close to wrapping up for the night. Tomorrow after meetings we’ll go over to Soda Springs to spend the afternoon with mother and dad and Nina will take dinner over in celebration of Mothers Day. That should be a fun afternoon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
