Well, the main outdoors activity (on another fine sunny day) was giving the New Victory Garden a second going-over with the tiller.
And then walking the tilled area, picking up such rocks as I could see on the surface or feel underfoot. With the soil properly tenderized, it's surprising the rocks I could feel buried a few inches down. And I wasn't wearing my toesie slippers, nor yet Vimesian boots with cardboard soles the better to feel the cobblestones; no, I was wearing Tacticool Sneakers with rugged rubber soles.
Not as many as I'd thought, and not really enough to fill up the low-lying muddy spot in the driveway. Maybe I should have used a landscape rake, or a drag harrow* (neither of which I have).
* Is this term now considered transphobic? I can't keep up. And "rake" used to have another meaning....
