I had a MG field trip to the local UC Smart Farm today. Interesting stuff out there and lots of research going on. We also got to see their green house on the main campus. Now I have a KofC meeting to get to.

I'm helping put out flags tomorrow for Patriot's Day. Saturday I have to get dressed up for a KofC Honor Guard thing. And Monday it's MG meeting in the morning, then a Costco run, and a meeting for the regional KofC group. I think I need a vacation from my retirement... :giggle:
