It's been such a lovely week and my palatial estate keeps luring me outdoors to my formal Italian gardens. Speaking of Italian, Dan Kipp has a new variety of Italian tomatoes he is raising in his greenhouse. They are not ready for planting yet but promise to be a particular tasty variety. Dan is now taking orders for tomato plants. So if you are interested, please contact him. His prices are dirt cheap.

Diamond Jim Schwartz, Brian Sweeney and Chuck Kohl were present and still considered guests.

Our thoughts are with Harry Maly and Fr. Jim Willig. Father Willig reminds us that it isn't how long you live, it's what you do in that time frame.
