Hamilton and his men finally dove from the boat into the swirling waters and swam to safety. Scarcely stopping for breath, Hamilton dashed off a message to John Hancock that urged the immediate evacuation of the Continental Congress from Philadelphia. Just before Hamilton returned to headquarters, Washington received a letter from Captain Lee announcing Hamilton's death in the Schulkill. There were tears of jubilation, as well as considerable laughter, when the sodden corpse himself sauntered through the door.

THE RINGS OF POWER // EP II.IV ELDEST

Very proud of myself. I got all of my gardening goals met for my days off this week.

I cleaned up a bunch of the mess that was piled up all over. I found ot all homes, or I got rid of it.

I spray painted almost all of those random planters black, so it's looking a bit neater where the plants are grouped together.

I planted 3 different lemon grass pots, 12 Marigolds (some in-ground, some container) for companions to the three different types of tomatoes that I got planted in the first raised bed.

I planted, Black Krim, Beefsteak, and Brandywine varieties of toms next to those Marigolds.

I also got my dill, oregano, and cherry toms potted in more permanent containers.

I had a bunch of flowers grown from seed, but I put them outside too soon and they died. I learned from them to expose my baby plants more slowly to the garden.

Anyway, I have been picking up some flowers sporadically over the last 3 weeks from nurseries and home improvement stores.

Portulaca, pansies, blue cone flowers, Marigolds, and not pictured I also potted up primroses, snapdragons, 2 artichoke plants, wild flowers from seed, and a pretty purple bell plant.

Stage 2 will be getting the peppers (mixed, Sweet, Serrano, Hot) into their larger and more permanent containers.

Also, getting the cucumbers planted into the second raised bed.
