Nah, ya can start out with somethin' simple. An' then we look up some tips on how ta raise it.

Ya live by schedules most o' the time, could wiggle in yerself a break jus' ta take care o' yer plant.

That doesn't sound too bad!

It'd be tougher if I was on tour.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

It would, but ya could keep one here, an' after ya could ask a friend ta keep an eye on it when yer outta town.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Good thinking! What kinds of plants are easy to care for?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Succulents are easy an' real cute. They don't need much water though, so it can be easy ta forget 'bout waterin' it. Most indoor plants don't need as much waterin' as ya might think, t'be honest.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

What about plants for eating? Herbs and stuff. Are those hard to grow?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Some are a lil bit more than others, but some are dang easy. Mint's real easy, fer example.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Maybe I'll get one of those. Then I can take it back on the boat.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Now that'd be cute. The smell would be real nice too, if ya like mint.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

I do. It's good for tea.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

We can see if'n they got any mint in here?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

What can we do if we find any?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Ya could try growin' some from a cutting. Snip off a stem, put it in some water, an' it'll grow its own set o' roots.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

That's like magic.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Ain't it? Nature's got its ways.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

That's really cool...

Do other plants do that?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Yup, plenty o' 'em do. Don't know 'em all though, but reckon we can check as we go.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

[ Taking his arm again. ]

So we keep walking?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

We keep walkin' an' see what catches our fancy.

Takin' the time ta smell the flowers, as some folks say.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

It's not really something I've had time to do.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

Heh, I figured as much. So the best way I figured was ta make time fer it.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Well, I'm liking this so far.

Guess that means the date's going well, right?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[holesomelanguage]

If yer havin' fun an' feelin' good, I'd say so.

Cooould maybe do some more selfies t'gether, ya think?

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[preciousjem]

Yes! YESYESYES.

[ opening her camera app ]

C'mere.

Re: Day 248, Afternoon/Evening

[ Leaning in for her. ]

Get my good side, yeah?
