It is smokin hot out there. 107 in my garden yesterday and on it's way to the same an hour ago when I realized I better get out of there.

Looks like a couple more days in the frying pan before we are back to good weather.
I have been asked several times what I thought was the ideal tomato weather, my reply was 90 for a high and 60 for a low, just happens to be very close to what the averages are for my area.

I am thinking August 10th or maybe the following Sunday. I think I might go out on a limb and invite about 100 people so we might have a dozen people this year

Ray, I think I remember you offering to volunteer
I moved the garden about a mile down the road this year and hope all my plants handle the heat.

I have about 16,000 plants in so no one needs to worry if they do not have tomatoes to bring.

Hundreds of wineries very close by if anyone from far away needs another reason to fly this way, I can supply some recommendations .
