Spring kale, overwintered

Up before 7. Out before tea. Blueberries. St. Johnswort. Basil. Caraway thyme. Two new garden beds. Shorts and a hat. A neighbor out early loading a strange, homemade pig bench into the back of his truck. A trip across the street to my sharecropper garden. Four stocky kale plants with delicate spring leaves. Later, dinner.
