Will be so glad when the outage at the plant is over and Greg can go back to normal hours instead of this 1:00 p.m to 12:00 a.m. five days a week and being on call every other weekend!!!! This is his fifth week of this schedule and it goes till at least the 11th! Then maybe we can get more things done that need doing! His normal schedule is 6:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and every other Friday off. Then during the summer he uses his vacation to take the other Fridays off so that he's off every Friday and can help pick for market or do anything else that needs doing. We've planted summer squash, cucumber, winter squash, pumpkin & gourd seed, but still have cucumber and summer squash plants to set out. We got sweet potatoes planted and the tomatoes in the hoop house 2nd stringing done. They are looking good! They are blooming up a storm and there are quite a few green tomatoes! Lucas' girlfriend got here this weekend and she will be helping us for two months. I'm looking forward to her taking over the baking and cooking for me!
