This is my goal. I’ve read a few places that it’s wicked effective at cycling out nitrates and can just handle some tiny fish since I can empty it from the bottom and replace 10% regularly.

Some pipe replacement work is happening on a street by my house which provides a perfect opportunity to show why Jackson’s roads are so challenging to repair. Look at that soft clay.

Most days, checking my tomato plants for suckers is the last thing I do before heading to the office. My hands end up smelling like sweet tomato fragrance for the first hour of every day.

Always close to God. Two degrees closer to Kevin Bacon.
