Thank you  Lisa, how nice of you to offer- but  I think I will just go buy
transplants at this stage of the game. We do have a nifty little nursery in
the foothills that has some different varieties of things and so maybe I'll
go up there  next weekend to get some stuff.The only thing that I planted
that I can't replace that is BUGGING me is "edame beans"- the soybeans you
can steam.I mail ordered them-planted half and they were one of the seed
packets that flew away-(argh!) if anyone that has a couple extra of those
beans and could spare them-it would be greatly appreciated- they don't sell
them in stores around here.

This weekend will be spent putting things back together- Other neighbors
with older mobile homes faired much worse than I -roofs damaged ,trees that
fell on carports or branches that broke windows-lots of siding that came
loose and we have a lot of seniors who can't do a lot. Home owner's is
almost useless because if you have more than one claim- they cancel you -so
unless your roof flies off- you just try to take care of it yourself. We all
kind of help each other out in this park which is really kind of
terrific.All those old fart neighbors I am always telling you all about- I
just love them.
Well- most of them.

 So I'll be busy with my place and helping this weekend and won't be able to
get any transplants for another week- It is already so hot here- the growing
season is well on it's way and to tell you the truth- I don't really want to
start anymore seeds. Maybe I will feel different about that next week- but
right now I am just overwhelmed.

This is just my little garden and some minor property damage-  but all up
and down the delta- farmer lost whole crops and people lost boats and
houseboats- I am counting my blessing and thinking how fragile our  farmers'
lives  must be- I never complain about the cost of produce- those guys earn
every penny as far as I am concerned.

Well the wind has died down a bit but we are still on a wind advisory- we
wound up with gusts up to 57 MHP this afternoon and they closed  some of the
freeways down due to zero visibility. I can't EVER remember this happening
before and I have lived here all my life. I am sure the weather guy will
have some logical explanation for it- something weird going on out in the
Pacific or something-news at 11
.It 's so good to hear all about everyone's gardens and how excited they
are-  it is hard to stay down when you have a cheering section like this!I
will just pretend I am in zone 5and am just getting started!
-thanks-Kitty
