No it really isn't. About the only thing that worked out today was getting the tomatoes and peppers transplanted. KK and I talked about what to do for the Steam camp. I think I know what I'm doing but if anyone knows a good steam project for 5th graders let me know. I'm still in the planning stages ( Read more... )
