Roland’s help? Hmmm, I may need to get some!

My friend is dropping off a bunch of blue agave tomorrow. Can I plant a couple in with the torts?

Good Morning Everyone.
It rained for a while last night and was so refreshing to come out this morning to the fresh smell you get after it rains. And to see the garden nice and wet. It looked like it was watered very well. Yesterday afternoon about 15.30 one of the plug main switches tripped and we have to wait for an electrician to sort it out. Just as I have a few things that need to be done on the computer to meet deadlines. So annoying. This time we can't even blame Eskom [emoji85] . Oh well what can you do other than to ride it out and hope it gets sorted as soon as possible.
I hope it is a tantalizing (only word I could think of that starts with a T and is descriptive) Tuesday for everyone.

I know you appreciated the rain!!
You lost power at home?

Wind is done and it’s a nice cool morning with blue sky and bright sunshine. We’re off for our quick hike at our close-by wildlife refuge.

It is evening here. [emoji23] It is strange reading that it is only morning there.

We don't have that here.

Wow that is a lot.

Yip we did. No a plug tripped at work which took our computers offline. But we had to wait for an electrician to fix it as it was not as simple as flipping a switch back up.

It’s really starting to feel like SPRINGTIME. Sun out, things are warming, perhaps some hints of green. Lots of tree damage where we hiked...

The biggest hazard blue agaves present is the bayonet point at the end of each tip. Risk assessment for this one primarily factors in potential mechanical damage to the torts and their keeper(s).

I don't think you would have to worry about the torts trying to make tequila on the sly...

Hey.....your tortoise is on its back.
Nope, he’s been brewing again. No problemo.

Good point!! I won’t plant it there.
We are putting them along our fence at the bottom of our property where the coyotes jump over!
I ran into one in my yard the other morning about 6am when my little dog was out.
I could never do the entire fence line but my friend was going to throw these out.

I’m so jealous! I’ve just acquired 1 small one that I was so proud of.. rescued really.. it was budding out of the root holes. I cut the plastic pot apart and replanted Ali g with a bunch of neglected aloe... but I would love to have some big plants like that in my yard!!!

We don't have that here.

This is my life saver!!!
