Well I now have a pumpkin set and it doubled its size in one day!
Hey Im a papa! well not really but after wind hail and on i have a pumpkin growning, and now that one has set a whole bunch more are trying, its feast or famine i guess.

I know its my first time and this is routine to everyone else. But i'm proud!

Now i wonder how big it will get, if i break 100 pounds i will feel great!

Just thought i would let everyone know. I also have watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, cushaw, cucumber, corn, matoes, squash, chard, and carrots.

I feeling great! hope everyone else is doin ok now.

okay, i will admit it----
my recent moment of sheer happiness
was on Sunday when i had an.....

well, let's just say that the framework
i have been working on, a giant trellis for my
long gourd plants, was finally completed and i
raised that puppy/tilted 'er up and stood in awe
at this 11-foot-high thing i had created out of
2 X 4 X 12s and much scratching my head wondering how was i gonna do it-----i was even happier once i got the thing
moved, on two very shaky wheels on one end of it,
100 feet away to next to the plants for them to start growing up it----i was inspired by how quickly these little plants can grow! we'll see how high they like to get
out there in the patch......sorry for the hijack....eric
