Basil

Part of my ongoing effort to photo every plant in the yard. I love basil, but it’s not vary hardy compared to herbs like thyme and rosemary – a long weekend of 90 degrees with no water might kill it.

In other news, the K20D is still working – I can’t remember when it last froze. The freezing thing seems to happen more often when the battery is fully charged.

Fungus ruffles

I saw this stuff while hiking near Pine Lake at Wheaton Regional Park.

Painters

These guys were painting the front of a building in Nashville. There was work going on all over the place to repair flood damage, but I think this was just normal maintenance.

Vendors only

We went to the Nashville Farmer’s Market a couple of times – we had to go back for more of the super-juicy peaches we found there. One of the buildings was closed because of the flooding, but there were still plenty of fruit, vegetable, and sock (?) vendors around in the undamaged buildings.

Goofy fish

We went to Nashville for a wedding last weekend. Monday was Memorial Day and there weren’t a lot of shops open – so we drove around a while and went for a walk in Centennial Park, where we saw this silly fish.
