It's raining today, the garden needs it, but I sure don't!  Cool and gloomy.  Yuck.

I was going to plant tomatoes today, we're trying mostly heirlooms this year.  I got curious about them when I was talking about them with the proprietor of Hillside Feed and Seed, George.  He's a nice man, very gentle and funny, obviously the ex-hippie he is, and ( Read more... )
