It has been a wild and crazy ride for the last 4 days, fortunately we are all safe. We sustained minimal damage, and the tomatoe plants we have been growing are now qualified for the summer olympic swimming contests.
The ground hasn't dried out enough yet to get to some of plants. Stepped into it late Sunday and went up to my sheens in mud, good news is I tilled it up pretty deep. Under the circumstances we've been set back a little on our schedule, however we are delighted to have what we have left. We have friends that are in a whole lot worse shape.
Nashville is not going to be the same for some time to come. It is our sincere hope that this catastrophe doesn't turn into another Katrina. It would be nice to hear from the Fed's that the calvery really is coming, and not some lip service like our brothers to the south got.
We have transplanted some of our plants into 1 gallon containers since they have out grown the previous pots.
The majority of plants are now extremely tall, and with 13 inches of rain , they are good for a few days without water, maybe even like us ; a third of a year , according to statistics.
Due to the events of this past weekend, we are going to a lttle less consistant in our posting for a few days, so please bare with us. We had this Blog all planned out , the posting were going to be almost daily by now. We were going to have pictures of plants in various pose's , and instead we are now doing the sequel to " A River Runs Through It ". To sum it all up for those who are really frustrated " If you want God to Laugh ; tell him your Plans!". Hopefully this will get you through the day.
