Long day today and tomorrow

Long day today and tomorrow is going to be just as busy. Got a bunch of stuff planted in the hoop-houses as well as repotted into larger pots. Planted seven different cultivars of tobacco -- see what happens there. I have a south-facing wall that these are going up against to get maximum heat and light. Same wall is going to get several varieties of grapes (pick these up next week) and hops plants (already in and growing like a weed). Spent some time surfing the web for "Singer Industrial Sewing Machines" and it is amazing the breadth of parts that are available for this 70 year old machine. I know that some things like needles and bobbins do not change much but most of the innards for this unit are available (albeit sometimes pricey!). Nice to know that this can be handed down to the next couple of generations. Lulu and I will be spending much of tomorrow at the Welding Rodeo. This is a really fun event with lots of artistry involved -- I try to make it each year. Lulu's son was invited but he is going with some friends to the Star trek premiere tonight and will be out late. Oh to be 21 again... NOT! There is nice weather forecast for tomorrow so whatever time not spent at the Rodeo will be spent in the garden.
