Greg sometimes you have to figure out what you want to do with your summers.
If you want to be the best of the best, you take short vacations and call
whoever is
babysitting your pumpkins to see how they are doing. I once read a story
about a guy (help me with who list?), his wife told him if he thought that
roto-tillering in dollar bills into his garden would make his pumpkin grow he would
do it. My wife read the story to me (while going on vacation) and said "Bill
this is you!" Yes we can get too deep into pumpkins.
Just because we pull back isn't because we lost the love, (I never will)
It is just because sometimes the pumpkins we need to grow need to have more
time with us for special summers then the ones we grow in our gardens.
Good Luck
Bill
