Spring Is Here!

In spite of the fact that we had near freezing temperatures the last couple of nights, spring is definitely here, as evidenced by the rose bush in our front yard.  I'm going to have to trim the darn thing again if it keeps growing.

Over the weekend, I pulled out the rototiller and loosed the soil in the garden.  Kind of wish that I had the bigger model, since my little tiller barely gets more than a few inches into the soil.  Still, I could have bought the really cheap one that would have been basically useless.

I think that the current plan is to buy tomato plants this weekend.  Pam want to put in six this year.  We will probably hold off until after the toastmasters conference to put in the rest of the garden (especially the green peppers that have been growing in the kitchen for the last two months).
