Progress

We’ve had progress in the garden and in my yoga!

First, the garden! My other trees came in the mail! I got a black mission fig tree (in the front in the clay-colored pot, isn’t it pretty and kind of exotic-looking?), an Austin Dewberry plant (in the back clay-colored pot, it kind of looks like a twig, but I read that’s what it’s supposed to look like for now), and two tifblue blueberry plants (those are what I adored in Florida!)

 

I also transplanted by seedlings from their greenhouse into these plant pots and set them out on the table outside so they can gradually get sun. I think the ones we put in the ground earlier needed more water. We’ve started watering them more (the zinnias acted as great gauges for “happiness”) and they’re perking up. I planted quite a bit more zucchini than I would need (13 plants) and then read that one family will have PLENTY of zucchini from 2 or 3 plants… oops. Well, maybe God knew because I think only a few of our zucchini are going to make it. We planted them a little too early. But, we’re learning.

The red wigglers are on order and will maybe come before this weekend.

I have WONDERFUL spaces in downtown Abilene for yoga!!!! Through my volunteering at the Arts Council (I will always volunteer wherever we move – I make the best contacts!) I get to use the Center for Contemporary Arts for free! Upstairs, they have a great gallery with black wood floors and art all around – it’ll be awesome!

The other place I’m holding classes is the Elks Arts Center. In the ballroom on the third floor, there are these beautiful arched windows and gorgeous soft light streaming in! They use it now a lot for wedding receptions and it used to be used for USO events to entertain the soldiers in WWII! She is renting the space to me for a great rate because she said she’d been waiting for someone to want to do yoga there! How neat is that? I love God’s good timing!

I promise pictures soon! I’m really excited about these spaces! Pray the classes go well and people like them and tell their friends! OH, I almost forgot! Check out my website and let me know what you think! www.yogawithmckay.homestead.com
