I am exhausted. What a day.
I met the foreman in an empty restaurant parking lot this morning-- he was running late. Coffee and cold cigarettes.
I really want to go into the day... but I'm collapsing hard-- I'll edit this up tomorrow.
But until then here are the classes I attended:
Soil I (was filled to capacity, they wouldn't let us in)
Winter Growing and Marketing (depressingly bad)
Strawberries I (excitingly good!)
Innovative Crop Rotations (Very good)
The foreman and I wandered around the exhibition hall-- I chatted up everyone I could force eye contact
with.
Lunch-- food options were sad and few, we escaped out into the vacant/beat down city to find a hot meal. Ended up at a bar, we ate old sandwiches and drank many beers. Walking back was complicated.
I got into Soil II: Masterclass (great speaker discussing no-tillage methods, lively audience of old men with Abe Lincoln beards, flannel and suspenders.)
The class let out early, so I hit up a few more presentations:
Tunnel Innovations (important, but dull as a rock)
Organic Production (an interesting slide show of every plant disease I should be horrified of)
Got home a little while ago. Now must sleep, must sleep.
