I do my thinking while I walk. It just loosens up the mind in the way that you don't get when you are sitting at a desk.

I like weeding, but I tend to think of it as a solitary activity.

When I weed, I like to get off into my own head. For one thing, my wife plants and I have trouble telling which plants are weeds and which are my favorite plants. So I tend to hop around and grab the weeds that I know are weeds. So I don't weed all that linearly. I tend to weed haphazardly.

I love having my hands in the dirt. It is never a science and always an art. There are no rules. And if it comes down to me versus that weed I'm trying to pull out of the ground that doesn't want to come out? I know I'll win.

Once I've decided to do something, I do usually try to carry it through to fruition.

I have always tried my best to do what I thought was the right thing at the time.

A good garden may have some weeds.

I'm in a constant process of thinking about things.

I do endless chopping and preparing things. I really find that relaxing. I do a lot of thinking as I am chopping and cooking.
