Since my paper on the weekend, I have been forced into a little non-voluntary down time, but that’s good to do now and then. Mind you all the blog items keep swilling around my head.
However, I am about to embark on a wee bit bigger break for 2 weeks so this post will remain a [...]

Since I have been reporting on Minzah’s experience at Urbis, I got to thinking about some other ideas for reporting how my past students are going.

This has been my random weekend toolbox for the last few weeks. My wheelbarrow consists of native seedlings, a shovel (rarely, the crowbar), potting mix and water crystals, oh, and a bucket for watering them in.
