Well, it is Sunday, after all! We simply didn’t go anywhere today. We decided that Trek in the Park was likely to be miserable on a hot day, during the hottest part of the day. And we didn’t need to go anywhere else.

I did, however, get up early and work in the garden, so I guess I wasn’t entirely lazy.  The garden is still stuck in a holding pattern. The beans I planted (bush and pole varieties) are still young. The tomato plants are finally starting to fruit, but not very much, and we haven’t had a single red one yet. Or yellow. One of the plants is supposed to have yellow tomatoes.

Even the zucchini isn’t really doing much this year. Usually we’re overwhelmed with squash. Now I’m lucky to get two or three little ones (4-5 inches long) for dinner.

After lots of weeding, I settled down and got caught up on Google Reader items, which is my version of reading the Sunday paper. And then after lunch I read my book (a Beatles biography) and took a nap!

So, no real challenges today — but I did notice that we’re running low on toilet paper and milk, so I’m planning an Xtracycle trip to the store in the morning.

Can you go car-free for one day? I’m doing FIVE days right now; sign up for one car-free day and I’ll match it by adding one more day to my time.
