Love's finding gardens. Now I'm kind of allowed to say about it. But we were still in Navy at the time and she had the pepper garden in the backyard. She had red bells, green bells, yellow bells, jalapenos, regular green peppers, chilies, a whole bunch of peppers. It was a little like 8 foot by 1 foot strip of dirt in her back behind our apartment. And she wanted me to die. I had to take care of it. I did good. I watered it every other day. Like she said, I picked the weeds tonight. I took care of things. I made sure the ladybugs were on the leaves and the aphids were off the leaves and all that kind of good stuff. Well, the day before she came home, I went out there and watered them. Looked in there was a couple of peppers that were ready to be picked. This everything was gorgeous. And I was like, she's going to be so tired when she gets home. And I went to the pier.
