Default Lockup-Garden Episode

In this episode of Lockup, you will see various prisoners facing confinement in my garden. This first picture is the gang unit. The Tomatoez are housed here in a segregated unit. They used to be housed near the dangerous Volz and Squirrelz, but Tomato deaths ensued.

This is the minimum security area of the prison. The builder had never built anything of wood before, nor did she believe in the value of a level. Therefore, less serious criminals like ground cherries and tomatillos are housed there.

The beans are plotting an escape. They think the warden hasn't noticed that they want to climb out by means of a teepee. The squash behind the beans are watching from behind.

Finally, this is a view from the guard tower of the entire complex and a photo of the guards, Cassie and Cosmo. Unfortunately, the guards are easily distracted by lizards and frequently sunbathing rather than patrolling.

I think maybe success is making you loopy. Glad to hear things are under control for the time being, although I would watch those guards if I were you. They're extremely cute but they don't look very intimidating!

I am celebrating success because I have to go to Utah for a week and an extremely young immature guard (my 15 year old son ) is taking over the watering and watching. I'm really really hoping I have a prison with live prisoners when I get home. I told him that there should be no executions while I'm away.

The furry guards...suck at their jobs. One sleeps his entire shift. And the little one manages to find ant and spider mounds and get them all over her muzzle. Good thing they are both cute and cuddly!

No executions...you crack me up! I'm sure your new guard will do a fine job.

Default Attempted Jail Break

A female juvenile gang, the Quailz, attempted a plant breakout this morning. Those dumb chicks, they got in and couldn't get out! I had to go put all the plants on lockdown to extricate the Quailz. If it's not one thing, it's another.
