Today I built the first of our benches. The benches will increase capacity of containers by about forty percent.
Last night the temperature dropped to 19 degrees and the greenhouse dropped to 45 degrees. Tonight, after placing a remote temperature sensor in one container to monitor the temperature drop, I covered the containers I planted last week . I'll compare the air temperature in the greenhouse to the temperature in the container. Four of the seven items I planted last week have germinated -- arugula, mesclun, bok choy and kale.
In December Julie ordered a new dining table and chairs. Today I came in and discovered she had moved some flowers from the bedroom to the table. I like the look.
Macy and her nightly routine. Each evening when I sit she tucks herself into my left arm.
Our Christmas cactus has bloomed a second time. It bloomed in November as normal. Recently I noticed some buds and expected a few blossoms but it is filled with flowers.

Macy's nightly routine is very cute.
Hi Paul,
My husband and I are considering a move out your way. I read your earlier blogs and was wondering if we could talk with you about living off the grid. We currently live in downtown Flagstaff. We are looking at a property today. Thanks, Jeannie

Ooh, I've missed greenhouse building! Can't wait to read further back and learn about those barrels.
