Car as Greenhouse

Spring is definitely here,and I am behind as usual.  I had intended to get my plants in the ground and wrap them in plastic until after the frost date of 4/20, but didn't quite get there.

An AHA moment!

Put them in the car at night, take out during the day.  When I noticed how well they were growing in the car, I just left them and added my flats with seeds, which should be sprouting soon!

My car is nothing but a truck that hauls dogs, dirt, trash and goat food, so might as well use it as a greenhouse, too!  My new car, if I ever get one, will have none of these things step foot into it!

I did, however, accomplish getting the veg garden cleaned up and ready to go.

IN THE GARDEN

IN RESCUE:

This is sweet Blizzard who came from the same shelter as the puppies last weekend, so Bob drove to Spruce Pine, yet again, to pick her up.

She made it to Florida to her rescue and is being fostered by Kim with her husky pack.

She fits right in!

Yesterday a friend called and wanted me to get to a local shelter ASAP to save this senior husky/chow who is 12 years old, partially blind and deaf. Carol hasn't picked a name yet, but see that lightening bolt on his forehead?  He should be named with that in mind!

Picked him up, went straight to the vet, and my day was shot yesterday, but well worth it.

He spent the night and Bob drove him to Kingsport, TN to meet Carol, his new mom.  He will be living with Colin, the white chow from SC who lost his arm.

The vet had to cut this huge, 3 lb. collar off of him with a hack saw.  It covered his whole neck and was rusted and stiff. I can't believe the shelter didn't get this off of him.

Okay.  So this week I said to Bob, NO RESCUE STUFF!! I have this special project that I need his help on that I want to get to, and hopefully I can talk him into it in a few days since I've been sending him on all these transports.  Plan is to go to "my house" tomorrow on the way to the goat farm and gather some ferns for my "special project"!!
