Day 555: Mapping the gardens
I swam 220 lengths today, just over a mile. Maybe I will sleep better tonight. In between sets, I worked on mapping the gardens. I was finally able to retrieve and update the 2011 catalogue that I had made in an excel program that my new computer won't read. Since I moved so many lilies this spring, I have to wait until they bloom to verify what they are and create new maps. The online databases are extremely helpful for double checking that I have accurately labeled each lily. Even though I keep the tags when I buy one, they aren't always correct, plus many were gifts from my sister. It's fun to research their characteristics and solve the mysteries of their identities.
