How to Build a Nursery
(Do Not Try This at Home)

May 29, 2003
The longest journey starts with a single step.  You have to have some place to put the plants.  This looked as good as any. A bottle of Roundup and a roll of ground cloth, that's all you need to start a nursery! Hey, this is easy!

Our big yellow truck.  The last of 17 trips. Boy, we put some miles on this thing.  Everything is here now and all we have to do is figure out where it is and where it's supposed to be.

One of the first things you need to do when you build a nursery is get yourself a golf cart.  Tooling around on a golf cart is half the fun of running a nursery. Man, these things will go anywhere.  And when someone is looking for you, you can be out of sight in no time. Plus, it has four cup holders!

You get all the fun of playing golf without having to bother with that little white ball. 

Always carry a plant in back so it looks like you're doing something important.

The other half of the fun is tooling around on a tractor.  You really gotta have a tractor.  You can move things with it, cut grass, dig holes.  You can do all kinds of things.  Or you can just ride around on it and let everyone else think you're working.  You simply cannot build a nursery without a tractor.  Make sure they give you a baseball cap too, it comes with the tractor.

OK, once you have your golf cart and your tractor, you can start building your nursery.  Follow me.
