  Welcome  Frank,
    I apologize  for  not e-mailing  sooner.   You    will  find  that  there
are  more  "lurkers"  than  ""writers"   on  the  veggie  list,  but  if
there  is  something that "trips  their  trigger"  they  will participate.
    We  are  having  severe  weather  in  the  central  U.S.,  so  we  are
not  doing  much  concerning  gardening.   It  is  good  to  hear  from
fellow veggie-list  members  from  afar  that  have  good  weather!   Just
the  thought  of picking  peaches  makes  all the  snow  easier  to take.
All  of  the  counties  around  me  has  declared  a  state  of  emergency,
so  we  will  be  stuck  in  the  house  for  awhile.  Got  out  yesterday
to  the  store,  so  with  all the  early  warnings of  the storm,  every
one  is  in  pretty  good  shape.
  Lisa  H.  is  a  veggie-member  from  Sidney,  so  if  she  is  still  on
the  list,  she  will  participate.  There  is  a  15 hr.  difference  in
our  time  zone,  so  when  you  get  up,  you  will  read  this.
Monica  from  Indiana
ps- lets  hear  from  all of you  out  there  in  veggie-land,  especially
in  the  warmer  climates!!
