ALL OVER

Travel all over, in this town and in the next several. In Kentucky for the Rolex event; in LA for a growing-up event; up to Chattanooga to pick up Lana for summer. Lots of miles to log on, lots of things to see and do. Even a slew of varying weathers. Kentucky was cold, then hot; LA is... who knows? and Chattanooga will be unpredictable, though hopefully no bad storms,

Horse eventing in Lexington very cool, catered, hanging around horse-know-it-alls, and taking some photos fro the first time in a year! I sidled up to an older lone woman who, it turned out, was a formidable dressage rider in her day and now runs a breeding stable with legendary lineage. She was a card, and didn't really fit with some of the rest -- she confirmed my pick of vegetarian/hippie restaurant as the best in the area (ALFALFA), and we talked about seed saving and local foods!

Back to Jacksonville and started a "community" garden for the community of horse boarders. Long hot day -- seven hours -- and one poor soul even had heat stroke. I don't know what success to expect because the soil is mostly sand with some horse manure plowed into it. But it looked great when we were done!
