Hi Wes,
Sorry to hear about your health problems.
I've had pretty severe back trouble, so have eased up a bit on the
gardening for awhile. Just a couple of very small patches
of tomatoes and beans and a little okra.
We may add some edamami this year.
The soil here is really rain-soaked for a change.
I too, have been perusing a bunch of seed catalogues. Always tempting
to try something new.
Here's to a better 2009 on many counts!
