Hello my friends, I am glad to be back at Blogger after such a busy semester. It was the first semester of my educational career (that I can recall) in which I pulled an all nighter, two in fact. I share with you today the end result of one such all nighter, a site plan, a zoomed in view of the restaurant in front of the department store in that lame-ass strip mall plan I posted about three weeks ago. I was probably the only kid who did a plant list for his site plan (take it to the bank, I was the only one) and my plant list works, I say. The only negative feed back was that my courtyard was too "fussy." The simplest courtyards work best, but they are the hardest to design. It takes a lot of guts to just put a circle in a square and walk away, but I think what they were telling me was that that is what I should have done.
Today consisted of a casual brunch with friends around the way and an afternoon of yard work, much overdue mowing, and beginning to extract massive Chines privet bushes from my grape arbor. Gotta get with perennial agriculture, dude. Yesterday began with a pleasant nature walk at the Noxubee Refuge, where I met a cool soil scientist and a mushroom guy. We found some amanitas in the parking lot.
