The Route of Jubierre 2

I promised I'd upload some more pics of the last trip I made to the Monegros desert. I've chosen these two. I hope you like them.

What's up, doc?

On top of the world?

The Route of Jubierre

Yesterday, with my friend Andrés, I visited the Route of Jubierre in the Monegros desert area. Even though this is a touristic place you still get the feeling that you are visiting a wild area because it is really spectacular.

I'm uploading several pictures here, but I'll upload some more next week. Stay tuned :)

My sweeties

I have been a little bit away from the keyboard these days. You know, springtime, lots of things to do in the kitchen garden and so little time. Now Easter is just around the corner, I hope to have more time... ahem

This weekend, apart from many more things, I planted two trees. The first one is a variety called "Sweet cap" (Hence the tittle of the post) and the second one is a weeping willow (beautiful trees).

I already published this on my phlog and you know that I do not usually crosspost stuff, unless I crosspost stuff.

This is to say that you really should visit my gopher site at:

If you cannot browse gopherspace try this link (direct gopher proxy link to the above-mentioned post)

Anyway, I'm also uploading some of the pictures that I took (with a slightly worse quality)

Much to my surprise I discovered that SMPlayer does YouTube too (installing SMTube) and to be honest I must admit that very well. I took an screenshot of my sid laptop while watching one of my favourite talk shows.

Working in the garden

This year's work in the garden consists in building several wooden boxes to grow vegetables as usual, but using ecological plague control methods (the boxes allow you to isolate/monitor the plants growth better).

So far I have built two big boxes (even though they are still not filled with soil) but I hope to have, at least, five by the end of the month, depending on the amount of available time. In the picture you can see one of the boxes and behind it, there is a little plastic greenhouse (the big one I used to have was completely destroyed by the wind).
