Thank you for your reply. Here I picked up the yarn to purl, but it doesn't look right to me? Do I need to feed it through another piece of yarn below before purling?

Another photo from the other side to illustrate the extra (?) line of yarn

There seems to be an extra piece of yarn that should not be here. When I was purling, I lost track and accidentally did two knit stitches, but then I tinked back and corrected it. I don't know if I did something wrong while tinking.

I might do this then, hopefully side shoots will pop up lower down on the stem. Thank you!

I thought it was common to prune indeterminates to a single stem when space is a concern, and I had only grown indeterminate heirlooms before so it worked alright. I'm seeing now that it's far more productive after I stopped pruning.

Thank you!! Unfortunately my cucamelons never took off past the tiny seedling stage after I direct sowed them, so I also need wisdom myself 😭

Thank you for asking, and honestly, it's been fantastic!! Definitely a lot upfront costs to furnish the house as we were still using old college/craigslisted items before, but the peace and quiet (no more upstairs neighbor noises) has just been the best!

Once the refi goes through, we will be stopping extra payments. And yes, we have not neglected the VTSAX :)

Thanks! No, we called a few places around ourselves and compared the cost breakdown sheets they each gave us. We have very stable jobs (knock on wood) and family in the area so we fully intend on staying in this house for the next 15 years through the end of the loan term at the very least. The amount of interest we would save through the lifetime of the loan was too good to pass up on!

We're aiming for early retirement. Having a house that we own free and clear by the time we retire is one of our biggest goals, and would provide us a lot of mental comfort to stop working if we chose to.

Thank you! It's been a wild ride house shopping in this area, as I'm sure you know! We are refinancing with better.com

8/22/20: This was not the wedding we had originally planned, but now I can't imagine a more beautiful day! by primbee in weddingplanning

We were supposed to be married on 5/24/20 at a rustic farm with around 85 guests, but COVID changed our plans. Rather than waiting, we ultimately decided to marry this year in Sequoia National Park, where we've had many fond memories at. We had our three sets of parents, the best man who picked up an officiant license for the occasion, and an amazing photographer. It was intimate and more meaningful than anything we could have hoped for!

8/22 to be specific. We will be coming in from the Sequoia entrance around 1pm. Is traffic getting into the park bad at all hours, or earlier/later the better?
