Planning ahead.

I love this time of year. I started starts for my garden today. I have two kinds of tomatoes - Oregon Spring and Legend, eggplant, green bell peppers, zinnias and marigolds. Hopefully the weather this summer will be much better for the tomatoes to produce well. And my plants will be bigger when I transplant this spring. I didn't start seedlings last year until late February/early March.

I learn a lot from me too! Like don't start seedlings in very early spring. They won't have time enough to get big enough to produce anything on the Oregon coast. Especially if we have not so great summer weather-wise. Like last summer. :)

It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
