Now (thur) that 36 is supposed to be 41, so maybe the tomatoes will make it. They got quite a storm last nite, but they're still "lashed to the mast". Too wet today to disturb the garden, but I have a lot of plants to put out in the next week or two.

We've got some tomato and pepper plants started inside , and so far so good , we are a little concerened over the pepper plants with the weather being chilly at nights here lately , but we have a lamp over them when it is chilly to help them out . I'll have to get all of this figured out with posting pics from the digital camera and share some pics of how much they've grown so far .
If it is similar to like going to P.B. and pulling the pic from there , I think I can get it done correctly and have the proper size put on here especially for the ones with dial-up , that's no fun , so here's to hoping my thinking is right on posting pics from a digital camera , if not someone please let me know and thanks in advance.

Yesterday I put out all of my peppers but the "Big Jim's". They are small, started late after the first ones failed. Planted a few things from seeds in the garden and waiting now for some good growth. Nothing to eat yet but green onions....

Like Road Runner?? Just paint a tunnel entrance on the side of a shed....LOL Overlook me folks, I've been out in the sun, lol lol. Zucs have broken the ground, beans should be next. Today I planted a short row of cotton. It's a kind that is naturally-colored instead of white. It's Brown, altho I do have some seeds for a light greenish cotton too, enough for maybe one trade. Anybody?

I don't think I'd want to dig the plants up, maybe just grow them in a container of some kind. I just got the seeds in a trade and wanted to multiply them. I'm not a spinner or weaver but I think more people should grow the colored cotton and use it to make something.
