THURSDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY FOUR

Be still and know that I am God.

Good Morning.

Mary gave me this a few days ago http://people.howstuffworks.com/swanson-dinner.htm and it sure did bring back some pleasant memories, because I had a littl part in this business, I personaly knew the two Swanson brothers and they visitied me one time. This was in 1953. I think that the first product was a chicken pie, and soon they added turkey pie, beef pie and then a complete dinner. my brother Howard and I were in business and we sold the first frozen chicken pie ever sold in Knoxville. This was something new and it a good sales person to sell them, but we got the job done. DAD.

WEDNESDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY THREE

" Time is so precious- do not waste it"

" Wasted years will never come again. They are gone forever "

Good Morning.

Here is a picture that looks good to me

This time of the year I think a lot about tomatoes, hoping that I can help some one so I look atDad's Tomato Garden Web Page often and I hope that you are doing the same. DAD.

Congratulations! You just had your first visitor from Dominican Republic.
.
Visit Dominican Republic on Wikipedia
.

TWO DAYS. first day.

There scarce seemed time that morn to pray
With so much work that I must do,
So with just a pause at the throne of Grace
A prayer I hurried through.
But Oh! What a wearisome day it was
How heavy my heart and my feet,
So lonely without the presence of God-
His fellowship so sweet.

I came to the close of the weary day
To think of the end of it all,
How much would be mine of what I had gained
When I would hear death's call.
For all that I will claim as my own in that hour
When eternity's dawn I see
Is what I'll have learned as low at His feet
I've heard Him speak to me.

SECOND DAY

.
A new day dawned and a hope with it came-
The hope of
beginning again.
I sought His face and He heard my cry,
My pathway He made plain.
He touched my heart and spoke afresh to me
Of His Fatherly love and care,
Gave a vision again of things worthwhile
That could be mine to share.

There was just as much work to be done that day-
I was glad for a chance to rest.
The evening came and it's sinking sun
Was hidden in the west.
But I'd walked that day with a lighter step
From a burden of care set free,
A song in my heart of a Father's love
A Father's care for me.
Garrett Hughes


It is time for me to visit Sara and Oreo, I never miss a chance to go to Sara's Dog Training blog and get a glimpse of Oreo's big smile. It brings a smile to my old wrinkled face. Dad.

You will find the three Cams, 1-2 & 3 in the side panel .

This is all for right now, I am stopping for another cup of x bold and a little rest, I have a lot planned for today and I hope that I will have the strength to do a good job. I am smiling and in a happy mood, that helps. DAD.
...
Today's weather..2/23/11.
Abundant sunshine. High 17C. Winds light and variable.
Sunny. High 64F. Winds light and variable .

Here is a thought below that I will leave with you. I used this yesterday, I want to remember it. It has already helped me.

TUESDAYS ENTRY TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY TWO

" The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want"

Good Morning.

Since the weather is the most important subject to us tomato growers I am going to give it to you first this morning, and also I am going to try and settle down more and talk more about Tomatoes and Smiles the two things that I am interested in producing, and stop some of the foolish things that I may have been doing.

Weather

Today.. 2/22/11.
Partly cloudy. High 12C. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.
Partly cloudy skies. High 54F. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph.


When I think of producing tomatoes I always think of this link Dad's Tomato Garden Web Page I have read it hundreds of times, You will find so much helpful things there from day one until you are smiling with a big juicy tomato in your hand, DAD .


"Fruiting crops, including tomatoes, need full sun most of the day for good production of quality fruit. Good drainage is also important. In high to medium rainfall areas (more than 30 inches per year) work the soil into ridges and plant on the ridge or build raised beds 12 to 18 inches deep. Plan on setting out at least one cherry tomato and 4 to 6 large-fruited varieties depending on the number of fresh tomato lovers in your family. You'll need stakes or wire tomato cages to support the plants to keep the fruit off the ground where it would rot. To insure even and efficient watering, you will want to put in a drip or soaker hose system for watering. Finally, count on mulch to keep down the weeds."

I want to mention something about my side panel that is always on the right side of the journal. I will have listed there all of the links that I usually mention in the body of the journal, under consideration is for me to produce you an up up date side panel and you can go there and choose what and who you want to read. I spend some time trying to guess which links to show and I may not choose the right one.

At the present the list begins with American Profile Magazine and ends with the weather, this would be increased greatly. And it would affect all of you that are mentioned in it, it sure would save old Dad a lot of work. Remember this is only under consideration, any thoughts would be welcomed. DAD.

There are two things that I have not mentioned yet this morning, so I am doing it now. I do need as always to look in on Oreo at Sara's Dog Training blog and Sara always helps me, I get a smile.

The other is that Sumtra x bold Starbucks coffee, the coffee is ready also hot tea, stop in and visit me. Dad

A SMILE

A smile costs nothing, but gives much-It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever. None are so rich that can get along without it-And none are so poor but that can be made rich by it.

It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give-It creates sunshine in the home, Fosters good will in business, And is the best antidote for trouble-And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value Unless it is given away.

Some people are too busy to give you a smile-Give them one of yours-For the good Lord knows that no one needs a smile so badly As he or she who has no more smiles left to give.

Author Unknown

I want to come again in the early morning
I am sending love and best wishes to all the world.

MONDAY'S ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTY TWO'

" Time is so precious- do not waste it."
© 2011 all rights reserved ... Dad's Tomato Garden Journal. Com

I think that I quoted a line that is in one of our hymns wrong in the Video above. here below is a correction. Dad.

" Best,tho my health and strength be gone, tho weary days be mine. Shut out from much that others have, not my will Lord but thine"

I am enjoying old age to the fullest, but there are lots of things that I do miss DAD.

Good Morning .
Good Monday morning, don't look so grumpy, it's not all that bad. just a big smile and a cup of that Sumatra x bold coffee will make every thing alright, and looking at Oreo will make it perfect, here is the way to his house.click on this Sara's Dog Training , blog and you are there, Sara will show you around, and you tell her that Dad is on his way.

FRIDAY'S ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN

...
Smile and the world smiles with you- Weep and you weep
alone. "
.
I don't think that the statement up above is exactly right, I can not remember when I have had to cry alone there has always been a dear friend to help me cry, DAD

Good Morning.


I do have one thing to tell you about my Wildlife Habitat, we have two Bird Baths in operation, they may be seen on Cam.# 2 and Cam. # 3. It is getting warm here in East Tennessee and I believe that the birds will be glad to have them, if not I am glad, I can sit for hours watching them, a good time to meditate, DAD.


"As we parked the car today along the water front in Bradenton I saw this beautiful huge white pelican. Though I did not take this photo it was taken in approximately the same area by Enrique Pino and it may even be the same white pelican. They come from Canada for January thru March. Unlike the brown pelicans, these larger birds do not diving from the air for fish, they sat on top of the water and grab them."

THURSDAY ENTRY TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SIX

.
" It is a good thing only God knows all about us only He could be trusted with such information."

Good Morning.

To Know All is to forgive all.
..
If I new you and you knew me, if both of us could clearly see. And with an inner sight divine. The meaning of your heart and mine, I'm sure that we would differ less. And clap our hands in friendliness. Our thought would pleasantly agree. If I knew you and you knew me.


If I knew you and you knew me. As each one knows his own self we . Would look each other in the face, And see therein a truer grace, Life has so many hidden woes. So many thorns for every rose. The" why" of things our hearts would see, if I knew you and you knew me.
By Nixon Waterman.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness for they shall be filled.
Matthew 5:6.
..
I think that I should go over to Sara's Dog Training blog and see my friends, you can come with me if you want to, I know that you will leave with a smile. Dad.
