Plants

Janie called very excited yesterday to let me know the onions have sprouted in the garden. Good news! We needed some good news this week. As you know Brian is at Ft. Stewart for a few weeks. The day he left the refrigerator went out. Then we were told Janie's scooter can not be fixed. A very sad day on Thursday because our dog Dixie passed away. She was with us for twelve years. We will miss her.

Wednesday Karmin and I planted cabbage, marigold and zinnia seeds in the jiffy trays. Friday we had a couple of sprouts already. Well, today we have a bunch of sprouts. The tomatoes are just going crazy. In each tray there are 72 of the soil disk to plant the seeds and all but eight have sprouted.

At the cabin we have planted one dwarf red maple tree and one red dogwood tree. So far they are doing pretty good. Next we will plant a dewberry plant, a muscadine plant and a blueberry bush. They arrived this week and I planned on planting them this weekend. That will have to wait since we have rain.

I hope that God blesses our garden so we have enough to share.
