Baptism Sunday


Baptized 24 people last Sunday; children, young couples, families, and seniors (one was 67 years old and the other was in his 70s).  There was hardly a dry eye in the place.

Onion Sets


These are the onion sets I will plant this month.  I have about 300 plants here, two varieties:  Yellow Granex and Texas Sweet.  They take about four or five months to make bulbs.

12 ft Cast Net


This is a 12' cast net I've been practicing with for the last five or six weeks.  I can open it fully about 8-out-of-10 times, such as in the picture below.  That's 24' across, with 452 sq ft within the circumference.  It is massive.  Now, if can only do this from the bow of my boat.


Lettuce


This is the lettuce growing in the hoop house I built a few weeks ago.  It's crowded and thick deliberately, with the intention that it will be harvested on-going.  We clip the leaves with scissors (for salads) while the leaves are small, leaving the stem which continues to put on new growth.
