For a number of reasons, many of my outdoors adventures over the past few years have occurred closer to home. Thus, I have taken the dreaded step of becoming a gardener.
Now don't get me wrong, I actually love it. Gardening is just one of those things like golf that, when I was in my 20's, I thought I would do when I was old, like in my 40's. (I took a golf class in college and I remember having that exact thought. Just for the record, I haven't played golf since - still not old enough for that.) But here I am, old enough to garden, and actually enjoy it.
