The Horse arrested yet again.

As some of you will remember, I went through a stage of my life when arrests were common. I did a lot of illegal planting at Kaiser, and paid the price. But the planters were eventually taken out, and my life of crime was stopped. A few months ago, the planters returned, and I planted some corn, green beans and sunflowers in the darkness of the Noon day sun while picking up my PTSD medications. Today, I was briefly detanled but was released, due to the "three strikes" law. I advocated on my behalf, and the officers relented. Two sunflowers plants are standing proud and tall (well, perhaps close to three feet). One green bean plant looks healthy, and has already yielded a couple of beans. I did not harvest them. But I did not see any corn plants growing. I will bring some corn seeds next time I am out there. Have you ever led a life of crime? I have never cheated on my taxes, molested women, stolen government documents, etc. But I HAVE enjoyed planting seeds in random places. I will attach my mug shot. Do I look mean? Or perhaps just silly?

When you said "illegal planting," I thought maybe you had a pot farm somewhere in the hills of Northern California.

I don't. But I do know "people in low" (actually moderate elevation) places.

I thought somewhere in California it was legal to grow your own pot. I am fairly sure that there are a few farms in my area of California that grow.

On the opposite side of the coin my mom frequently helped plants propagate themselves into her care from public places or even people's porches. I was always fearful we would have to bail her out somewhere.

Thief! Thief! Here in CA we share a lot of succulents, since all you have to do is cut off a sprig and stick it in the ground.

You're looking old actually. I hope you continue to plant random seeds.

@JudyEv I still miss her. She was my Herc--a symbol of a time in my life. But my knees and hips don't miss her.

Seems like prior to writing this post you may have smoked some seeds of a different variety. Speaking of seeds, I heard Magic Johnson was quite a planter of seeds also. lol

@TheHorse That's different. With a criminal record like that, you might be Shady Vance's replacement.

Even with the planting? And I DID sneak on Chicago trains as a teenager.

Those plant police will get you every time. I'm glad they didn't detain you. I'm glad your plants are looking good and healthy. Great mug shot. You look happy.

I would love some of those "illegal" beans. Probably make bean soup. You don't look mean - a tad guilty perhaps.
