Alaska to New Mexico

Life in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico. We left Homer, Alaska on June 3rd, 2009, traveling in our van loaded down with everything we need to set up housekeeping in New Mexico. We now own a small house here and are loving life in the sun. If you scroll back far enough, you'll find a complete record of our road trip.

February 3 2013

Groundhog Day yesterday! Planted 6 comfrey roots in front bed by the Cana Lilies. Made seed starter mix today. Started tomato, broccoli, basil, hollyhock, vitex, comfrey, oleander, and a couple of mystery seeds we gathered at UNM in Albuqurque and a West Virginia rest stop.  Cool and cloudy today, but no frost last night. Peas are germinated but not poking up through the ground yet. Maybe I planted them too deep.  Screened compost for starting mix and to dress beds tomorrow when we plan to plant some more stuff directly in beds.
