Dad produced this tomato pictured above in his tomato garden in 2008. I hope that I can do that good in 2011..
I imagine that you think that Old Dad has lost it, but I am o.k. the last line of the poem below is what caused me to be thinking about spring. You can ask Mary about me or check the 3 outsidw cams and you might get a glimse of me wandering around on my cart doing nothing.

"Blizzards may roar, and streams be choked With ice, but never mind Beguile the dreary days away,When winter comes, with work and play--Spring can't be far behind!"

So where ever you live if the tomato season is there or not we must think Spring, Some where in this world I can just see you eating a tomato sandwich. Smile.

You may not need this above at the present, but it would be worth keeping until tomato season comes back in your part of the world. Dad
When Winter Comes
Now let the winds of winter howl;
The snow heap high in drifts,
The earth is white; the skies are gray
But sweet spring will come back some day
Bringing her priceless gifts.
We may be snowbound days and weeks,
Shut off from our friends,
Jack Frost may paint our windows white
But stars will still be big and bright--
And winter always ends!
Blizzards may roar, and streams be choked
With ice, but never mind
Beguile the dreary days away,
When winter comes, with work and play--
Spring can't be far behind!
By Mrs. R.L. Peifer

Now lets all thing spring. Dad.

I got all carried away with thoughts of spring and have neglected to very important thing, one is going to Sara's Dog Training blog and see is Sara, Misty and Oreo are o.k and then I must get that that Sumatra x bold coffee going, if I don't have it ready I will have complaints. Dad
