LOL. Shopping cart veggies... [View all]

Last edited Thu Jan 12, 2012, 11:23 PM - Edit history (1)

Went down to the local nursery this afternoon to check out the veggie starts and to get some walking in. They had a good assortment of new veggie packs for sale. I picked out a few, got some fertilizer then realized I needed potting soil (I do most everything in pots).

Way too much to carry home. And I don't drive.

So, I asked if I could borrow a shopping cart overnight. After some discussion they said sure. Gave them my ID to copy and we loaded plants, fertilizer and 3 cu ft of soil, to go.

Pushed it all home, laughing a bit to myself and at myself along the way. Why not use a shopping cart to carry stuff from here to there...?

(ed for clarity)
