I'm kind of late, just home from a full day remodeling someones house. My son, 31, & I do construction & cabinet making in our off-season from gardenning. Gardenning & flowers are our living. 3½ & almost another big greenhouse, 6 acres of garden vegetables. Cut back from 20 acres couple of years ago. We are blessed to live in one of the most productive parts of the U.S.A., that being southern Minnesota, sort of the top of the Midwest.
I have a wife of 33 years, daugther, 28, with 2 lovely grandkids.
We daycare the grandaughter all day & GS after school. What fun!
A stepson, 36. He has a boy 16 & a girl 15.
I,m an oldtimer here on DG. I have lots of threads & posts about greenhouse growing & gardenning. For new people, click on Country Gardens & scan through posts I hasve started.
My wife & I attended Iowa Round-up last spring & will be there on May 5 & 6, 2006.http://davesgarden.com/forums/t/510804/
I hope to meet all of you there.
This is one of the best times we have had in a long time.
It is amazing to walk into a restaruant & join a table of about 20 people you have only heard their online name before. Took about 2 minutes to become friends!
Food, Saturday noon, unbelievable!
I'm ramblin'.
Bye for now,
Bernie
