Spring is leaping

Although my throat feels like razor blades and sandpaper I couldn't put off transplanting the "Mortgage Lifter" tomato plants any longer. They were named back in the depression-30s- when an out of work gardener developed them to be the largest tomatoes ever seen. It is said that he kept his house because those big tomatoes sold so well.They are Heirloom tomatoes . Grace and I went to a Tomato Festival last fall where I bought just one. The seeds of that one tomato produced twenty plants.
I talked to my"peps" across the street -they went to the store and got chicken soup fixins. It will be great to feel it sliding down my throat. WOW! Thanks! It is almost seventy degrees out so I am sure they were not thinking of soup for supper.
I remember walking home from my high school in late May when the trees and the lilacs looked like they look right now. Everything jumped the gun this year. Next year it could be Indiana snowing in this time slot. We never know.

Let's try this.

O.K. Grace got me up and running again. I know this background is a little over the top springy but it is the first day of April. We went to Winona for lunch -now I am too full. Need to do some greenhouse work with Mary she is doing a plant for 4-H. I am so thrilled that she stuck with 4-h
all these years. Marilyn Shannon who a teacher at IPFW is the leader and also homeschools her kids.
Chris (son) sings in the Easter program tonight. Should be great.
Spring break is all next week so things will be hoppin' around town including First Friday the 6th.
