I'm getting the itch to put some tomato and pepper plants in the ground soon. Winter hasn't been as harsh as last year. Don't know if i wanna gamble before March.

The old folks usta say do not plant anything till the pecan trees bud. Well mine sit there not a bud in sight. February is usually the coldest month so I wouldn't jump the gun just yet.

This is good advice!!!! The pecan trees never get fooled

The high today is only 55F and I hadda drag out a flannel shirt and my ole blue jean jacket. So I guess this is winter. Step son up in NY state said it took him 2 and a half hours to drive home from work which is about 2 miles away. he said with the snow above the roof of the car on the side of the road it makes stop signs and such very dangerous. I said I think i'll go pick another grapefruit my screw driver is getting empty. :-)
