Did anyone else get the new 2019 catalog from TGS with a nice welcome from the new husband wife owners and I ask b/c I did today.

I would assume that the online TGS has also been updated.

Lots of new varieties,I haven't had time to look at all of it especially that Brandywine situation.

When talking on the phone while waiting for the new owners to move East I asked her if she thought I could send some new varieties to them. She said no doubt but they hadn't gotten to that stage yet.

I have Linda's private contact info to reach her at home so I'll do that when I can,which is not now.

I'd like to know if they have purchased a new home yet and if so did it come with much land and that since Linda used to trial new varieties at home for a long time, but sold that home but still lives nearby.

I'm also wondering if they will continue to send new seeds to Aaron Whaley in WI as Linda did since she was very pleased with that situation.

As far as the paper catalog goes she used to fly out to where it was being printed to make sure the colored pictures turned out to be what they should be.

The length of my to do list gets longer and longer regarding some nasty stuff here in the Town near me; the TD bank closing,the Family Heath Center was supposed to close, but there's a new rumor about that. Finding someone new to do a Rite Aid run after I call them in for meds, especially insulin pens. I have a list and will call Howard tonight to see if he can do it,since I'm down to just 2 insulin pens and if the Salem Health Center closes,well,that is also a problem since if I need renewals, etc,they would fax up to Salem to get someone to sign off on permission.

And as a well known Amish saying goes....the faster I go, the "behinder" I get.
