Tribes and garden

Today was particulary cold in Boston, and I fear a frost may come upon us.  Such an event would mean certain peril for our newly planted tomato plants.  It would be truly sad if our unique heirloom species, imported all the way from Pennslyvania, were to freeze to death.  

As I was walking along Newbury today for my daily coffee, I was passing the Boston Architecture School when a bulletin caught my eye.  It was advertising summer classes and one in class in particular seemed interesting.  

"Botany for Designers: Plant form and function, evolution of seed plants, plant ecology, plant communities, basic plant physiology, and prospects for conserving plant biodiversity will be highlighted in this non-science majors' course designed for undergraduates." 

Yea, that sounds pretty cool. However, at $749 for just auditing the class, I am going to see if we can negotiate this down.

I also watched an interesting video about tribes today; however, his final request to make a tribe and create change is a little far fetched.
