Diverse Life on the Ditch

     The past few weeks have been very eventful on the ditch. I have met a lot of new dogs and their owners. I've also met a man walking his horse and a couple foraging for wild spinach and asparagus. The couple gave me a recipe for cooking spinach using pequin chiles and lime juice. Last night I tried their suggestion with a few changes: I sauteed garlic and a few chiles in olive oil, added fresh spinach and tossed it in the oil and then added the lime juice, it was delicious. Below are a few photos of what I've seen on my walks this month.
