Today began with a trip into the main part of Campomarino
Lido to pick up some food for the fridge. I bought some lunch meat, a variety of
cheese, farm-to-me veggies, bread for the day, pizza for breakfast, and meat
for the freezer. It was a pretty good haul for less than 50 bucks.
When I returned, I knew I had to tackle the garden outside
of our place. In the nearly 11 months since I left here, the vines have overgrown
the garden, virtually strangling the trees. So I went about cutting vines,
bagging scraps (four big bags today and two yesterday), and raking out old
leaves, then sweeping it all up. This was all done in about sunny, 100-degree weather.
The shade had a slight breeze, so I made sure to take a respite from time to
time and drank plenty of water.
Tomorrow is a trip to my dad’s hometown, Torremaggiore, in
the morning, followed by a mopping of the patio. I am actually looking forward
to driving the Renault Megane again tomorrow. It handles really well.
