We started a small army of beets from seed. The packet said the variety was good as greens so if they don’t develop below we’ll have them in a salad. We tore out the spinach that had wintered over and gone to seed and put the beets in that spot. It took us about an hour to transplant the wispy little things. A groundhog got at our cilantro early on but we caught him in a Hav-A-Heart trap and called animal control. I heard that the town lets them go over by the expressway interchange of 590 and 104.

Jazz Fest kicked off with a whimper for us but we found some cool stuff with our Club Pass. My brother, a Xerox (major sponsor) employee, gave us a couple of tickets for Janelle Monae at Kodak Hall so we popped in there for a few songs. The ushers who took our tickets at Kodak Hall asked, “Are you sure you want to go in there?” People were already out of their seats and in the aisles.

I’m keeping track of the Jazz Fest over here.
