–104+ today; plants are wilting in the heat.
–Went to Home Depot for hose, Perlite, dishwasher cleaner. Got clothes washer cleaner. Went up and down the potting soil aisle at least 8 times yesterday and today; didn’t see Perlite. Asked for help. Jackie came out and pointed to 6-7 bags with Perlite written on them in big white letters, at close to eye level. She gave me an extra one free for my trouble. Really starting to wonder about my faculties now.
–Stopped at UPS for the Case Hawkbill. Very tight, pretty cool. Glad I got stainless: it’s super hard to open with just the nail nick; you have to grab the blade.
–Stopped at Bel Air for oatmeal cookies, cream cereal, yogurt, pizza.
–Had pizza for dinner with the remains of the wilted basil plant. Pretty good.
–Played a little with the Leica TL2, having seen a super nice one in silver on eBay. Menus are opaque, no viewfinder for focusing, and a photo came out pretty grainy for 24 megapixels. Bullet dodged.
