Last week, when it was still May, we had Ladies Work Day at my place. D had provided me with 2 bags of tubing and connectors for a drip system that she no longer needed as well as a faucet timer. When J and I took the tubing out of the bag, I noticed that most of them were still strung together and... wait... can it be? Why, yes, it's exactly the same length as my garden! We laid out the little spider web of tubing and started to modify it slightly to match my garden perfectly. By lunchtime we were as done as we could be without heading to the hardware store, so off we went to OSH.
We picked up the pieces we needed to finish the drip system and grabbed lunch at our favorite El Salvadorian place. Pupusas = yummy! Within an hour of returning home, the drip system was in place, tested, and complete - and it was only 2:30. Um, we've never been done so early before. We usually work each other like slaves until we either 1) can't move or 2) it's too dark to see. So, now what? It was too early for our typical celebratory wine, so we just had water and sat out back under the apple tree talking until we were ready to fall asleep, which only took about 45 minutes.
Tomorrow, drip systems at D's house!
