Weekend update

We planted 35 or so different varieties of tomatos and in another bed, I planted okra and peppers. The peppers didn't germinate, but the okra did and so did about a hundred "volunteer" Roma tomatos from last years crop. We thinned them quite a bit, but we still have about 50 or so "volunteer" plants that are bearing fruit like crazy. This is a photo of our first tomato of the year, and it's one we planted.














Saturdays we go to church and after the service, 8 to 10 of us go out to dinner and wind up at our house to play "JOKER". This is a game of skill and finesse, and it really brings out the character of the players. Usually, the men play against the ladies, and last night the "Whiney" ladies demanded a re-deal. That is probably the only reason they won!

Wendy and Richard bought a used hot tub, and installed it in their backyard. We dropped by to see what progress had been made, and got a photo of the kids in the tub.
