With all this rain we didn't get them in 'til late. We can't plant them until late here in NY anyway. We've had hard frosts as late as June 23rd....that late is unusual, but it has happened in the past.<BR/>I hope they won't drown. <BR/>We had rain again this morning and a nasty thunderstorm with very heavy rain yesterday afternoon. <BR/>I LOVE fresh picked tomatoes!Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20379385.post-1152018778406891302006-07-04T09:12:00.000-04:002006-07-04T09:12:00.000-04:00Home grown tomatoes are my favorite.

Maybe I have not made myself clear, it is not that I WANT to work the rest of my life, but I will really have to. So, coming to peace with it and stopping the lusting for a lifestyle I cannot have has been a relief.<BR/><BR/>I am so happy for you that you have been able to be free to travel and garden and all. I know you put in your years and you deserve it.
