   Wordle in 3 with AISLE. Hopefully you were not awake when I played.

   Completed a tour of the royal apartment at Hollyrood Castle and now having lu ch on the water in Leith.

   I think we have reset our clocks, as we were up by 0830 and moving out by 9. We shall see how long that lasts.

     Holyrood has a pretty good museum exhibit too, did you see that? I am so jealous and happy that you are there! I would plan another trip there but Kevin says Ireland takes precedence. Okay… 🙂

       Two words “separate vacations”. Or if that is too extreme, fly to Ireland and take a solo excursion to Scotland for a few days?

         LOL. Of course he’s happy to go to Scotland. If I wanted to we would do that. But he hasn’t been to Ireland in 35 years and I’ve never been there, so we’re due. We go to Scotland all the time.

   Have to give ants credit. I’m covered foot to neck weeding WLF, and some sonnabitch just bit me twice on the neck! Starting to burn a little…

     From what I just pulled I could rename the space to Weedy Little Farm. :O

   All big dean-installation events are over and today should be a quiet day, thank goodness. We have zero plans this weekend.

   I got my CSA box this week and now I need to figure out what to make with all of it. The eggplant and okra are going straight into the bin. Otherwise there are apples, potatoes, and squash.

     Oy! And I grow both especially for eating…

     And I hope “bin” is code for “compost”?

       I keep meaning to sign up for Compost Now but it just feels like ANOTHER thing I have to pay for monthly. It’s overwhelming. I could just throw them out into the back flood plain and let them decompose.

   Wordle in 4 – you guys win.

   Today is attempt to pack, see how everything fits, so I can decide what I need to take out, still add, etc.
   Flight is at 5pm Sunday – so I still have plenty of time to change my mind numerous times on what I’m packing

   Have a great time. Barb.

   Nice lunch of smoked fish, then a tour of the royal yacht (former). I can easier see the royals on the yacht rather than Holyrood.
