Happy birthday Major! Your plants look great! I used to live in Charleston, SC. That's where DW and I met :)

Happy Birthday! I love Charleston such a pretty city. Do you restore old buildings?
thank you nyboy... wish i had time to enjoy the city it's up a 5am and drag my butt back in at 7pm.the company that i work for bought out another and moved it to a new location. the old building will be leveled starting next week, so we are in stripping everything out of it that is worth while to use later this year when they open 2 new stores 1 in conover,nc and the other in norfork,va.

being the director of maintenance i do not have the time to do any restoring, but if i did have the time i could enjoy doing that....


thank you as well montyj

Notice how Major starts something else as soon as he has room for it :cool:.

I started eating more cookies as soon as I got the cookie boxes with the seedlings out of the house :p!

Good for you, Major! Get those plants up and running. Soon -- instant garden!

Our tomatoes have blooms, too! I think DH got excited and planted a little early. :hu
But we are going to be able to start bringing them out soon. Today was 73 degrees!
We may get a cold day yet with rain snow mix, so we have to not forget them when we put them out for some sunshine. :coolsun
