June 29 — Diary of a Space Zucchini

June 29
Thecrew is busy with their departure preparations.  They are flying backand forth with bags of gear.  Gardener tried on a special suit made outof tight fitting fabric.  It keeps his roots and stalks from expandingwhen he returns to Earth’s gravity.  He said things will feel real heavyfor awhile.
