Correction--the REAL Earth Day today!  Day 3 conditioning: Bales fertilized with 1/2 cup per bale, followed by water from our rain barrel, which is working out great, I'm pleased to say.  I think I'm supposed to use warm water by day 6. Not sure how that's going to happen (I'm not carrying it from the house).  Mother Nature, care to help me out here?

OK, I took a little heat on the colonoscopy subject.  In my defense, I'm a health care worker.  There's no body part, or product-of-body-parts discussions that have ever been off limits in my home.  Besides, I pride myself on promoting wellness.  So in honor of niece Anngi and friend Marie, people do yourself a favor and get screened!  There.
