wind

it has been windy here over the past twenty-four hours with sustained winds of thirty miles per hour with gusts up to fifty…so after work i drove over to campus to see what sort of damage had been incurred and found…well…nothing much…hawthorn hall sheltered us again… the wheat grass is ifne and the mulch job on the yams held up…the zea diploperennis and the northern tepehuan are dying back but weren’t devastated…unlike the battered folks on the east coast who have been through the wringer…the pgp will be making some donations to a responsible ( both fiscally and philosophically ) charitable organization to lend what help we can…the asparagus is sending mixed signals with some dying back ( and highlighting the “berries” ) and some still green and trying to flower…a hardy plant but i will probably ne mulching it all next saturday regardless of its chlorophyll status…we’ve had our failures but on the whole the pgp has been most fortunate…hoping the good fortune holds…more as the mulch goes down.
