Pics making my mouth water for a homegrown tomato.

Gerardo, we're supposed to be getting 4 inches of rain this coming week. What about your tomatoes splitting? Or is that only when it's been hot and then rains?

Gerardo · January 2, 2016

I'll pick the ones that are ready or almost ready. Most of the tomatoes are the last ones for this batch of plants, so it should be ok.

About to cull most of them, do my build, and then plant out my winter children (small & stocky).

Gonna set out my rain barrels. .

Deborah · January 2, 2016

Rain barrels! Cool!

Happy boy. Newly renovated downtown park in the heart of Tecate, BC.

When I first saw the pictuer I was thinking what on earth is a Palm tree doing in British Columbia.

Low quality pic from my phone, apologies. Of note, Bushy Chabarovsky at 1, a lone SOO right below them at 2:45 and another in the middle, a fair amount of Odorikos at 4-5, cluster of Pierce's Pride at 6, a couple of Dester and a few Nicky Crain at 7, and others including: Siccagno di Valledolmo, Pearls of Wisdom, Pink Berk TD, Tasm Choc, Mano, Alcara Pink, Couilles de Taureau, and Cole.

Winter tomatoes are working out nicely.

In the end, I always end up picking up some wisdom, at least on the carpentry side of things.

Anything else you'd like to say about people in their late 70's being headstrong and I don't mean just with carpentry/

Carolyn, to be 77 next June or is that still too young.

And of course I accept your very sincere apology as you knew I would .

Very Happy and cute looking little boy of yours, but why is he wearing a typical Peruvian hat?
