Maybe we should get together Phil.  Your dogs could chase away our garlic
hunting squirrels.  This is our first time gardening in this house (we just
moved here last summer) so we had no idea that the squirrels would organize to
form a garden posse.  Next year I'm going to plan the garden out better and get
all the onions/shallots/garlic/radishes etc next to one another so I can cage
that entire area.  But this year, I sure could use a couple of your dogs.

On the good side, we had salad wiith fresh lettuce yesterday and our broccoli
is starting to bud.  The pea plants are getting huge.
