Default 2009 - My Way

And now, the end is near;
And so I face the final curtain.

· I’ve pulled all my plants, tilled the garden, added compost to the raised beds
· I have a mountain of ripening tomatoes on my kitchen counter

Regrets, I’ve had a few;

· Planted Black Cherry in a pot that kept tipping over in the wind...took a licking and kept on ticking, though.
· My trellis didn’t work and my tomatoes were a big sprawling mess by the end of the year.
· My wife thinks I’ve gone mad. Ah, but who really cares about that...

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.

· Did I mention, I’ve driven my wife crazy...18 full sized indeterminates in my back yard.
· Planning for more next year... don’t tell her... hehehe

But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.

· Nicolayev Yellow Cherry, what a spitter...a heartfelt sorry to those I traded it to...

And now, as tears subside,
I find it all so amusing.

· I must admit I am hooked. Loved it all from the beginning to the end.
· Already planning for next year.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows –
And did it my way!

· Hope everyone had a great 2009 and wishing you all a better 2010!!!
· Go Twins!!!
