Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

Light Rain Showers


It's been raining steadily since noon yesterday. The rain thundered down during the night and had a period this morning where it hammered down in bucketloads. Although there is talk of it backing off and becoming just scattered rain showers ... the band of rain extends westward halfway through Louisiana and southwest below Corpus Christi, TX to Mexico. There could be several days of this.

Does this mean it is time to start planting???
Kat bought a bunch of seeds at Dollar General for 20 cents a packet. We bought 50 assorted packets: 2 varieties of cucumber, Detroit dark red beets, turnip greens, collards, spinach, black seeded Simpson & parris island lettuce, dill, french & early scarlet radishes, black beauty eggplant, golden wax bean, Burpee stringless bean, henderson's lima bean, danvers & nantes carrots, and zuchinni. We'll use some and "can" the others for preservation for future emergency usage.
