Love that they are getting so Tall, Enjoy your evening my friend and good to hear your taking care not to get overheated. Today the temps was 96!! Supposed to be in the 80\'s tomorrow. You asked about what I do for the fourth of july. I stay home,and bbq hot dogs and braut\'s. We can see a major firework show from our backyard. This will be our first year of fireworks with Fritz. Will see how he handles the noise. Annie would bark and spin in circles...ha ha! We keep all our pets cats and dog inside on the fourth. Had popcorn chicken for dinner tonight. Too hot to cook. Tyrant tonight for my tv program. Take good care and good nights sleeps. Love/Blessings/Greenies

Wow you have a great Green Thumb! I didn\'t get a garden in this year but it turned out for the best as we have not had a great summer yet in the Great Northwest. Has been in the 60\'s but blew up to 90 today. We don\'t usually have a very long growing season here but it is so wonderful to see your garden doing so well! I am really glad that you had what sounds like a truly wonderful day, I am so happy for you and hope that the rest of your week follow suit, hugs....Kathy
