Your package might be a plan wrecker.
But, don't blame me. Blame all of the others.

Hopefully no shark seeds. Tigger seeds would be cool, though.







maybe

Caboose, I like that. It used to be my favorite car when I was really little. My uncle would tell me to keep looking for the caboose to keep me occupied while we waited for the train to pass. I still have my Lionel trains form the early 60's. Forgot all about them for 50 years. Favorite car there too.

Excited about what is on the way in the cabose. I just about have my area ready to go. Nice and clean from the additional prep time. Started celery and broccoli on a very small scale last week or so, Spinach has been soaking for 2 days and is going in the pots tonight. Lettuce is next to take a good soak. Cabbage and cauliflower soon but not yet. Peppers very soon too.

Hi tormato,

I'm not gung-ho to re-type my lists. How about if I just print and mail them to you?

Hooper here sending an S.O.S....

I wanted my expert city hands to build a jet ski that looked like this, as I thought that is would be most appropriate for the situation.






But the wreckage was pretty bad. Parts were very hard to find. So... it ended up looking more like this!

The sharks are fierce out here. Good grief they are trying to eat me alive.

Brody, I need some help out here... I give up!!! I'm drowning in sharks and tomato seeds. Sharks win! S.O.S

The seed haul arrived today! Thank you all, especially Gary!! I spent the evening sorting through them. I have sorted out the duplicates of varieties I already have, and those along with some duplicates from another swap and some extras from the ones that I sent in I'm offering to the first person who pm's me. They will all go to one person, no postage or SASE needed, just your address. I would prefer this person be someone new(ish) that doesn't already have a good inventory or who found this thread late and would still like to get a nice stash of seeds. I'll edit this post i dicating they are spoken for when I get the first pm.

EDIT: The seeds have found a loving new home.

I received my seeds yesterday and although I had so much to do, I had to run my fingers through them, read the postcard, and sit down for a minute to just enjoy the moment.

Thank you Gary for all the work you do! and to all those who contributed. This has been such a difficult year for me and all of your efforts really do pay off in ways that reach way beyond just growing tomatoes.

There are soooooo many varieties in there. Thanks Gary for the index card with suggestions for this coming season, I will definitely try to get those into the MMMM next year. Hope they do grow!

Nope, not me. I am done feeding the sharks. I have learned my lesson.... If I throw the seeds, you and your friends will just be there to scoop them up and will be hanging around here forever. Nope, I want you to go away. As one wise man around here says...

There was an envelope full of awesome goodness in my snow enshrouded mailbox. The caboose arrived safely at the station today. Thank you very much Tormato et al.

Starting fresh Siberian seed and the micro dwarfs 2nite!

Just one problem...the above have just tomatoes and peppers. I know some, if not all, had additional veggie/fruit/flower seed requests. I can't find the note for that. So, after your package arrives, PM me (no, it's back at 100% full), post here if you're still looking for other seeds.

99% done, then I skip Jaws II, and go straight to Jaws 3D (beans, mountains and mountains of beans).
