Frances: No complaints, but I dream on…with lots of company, it seems.

Oh Ricki, that is hilarious! But if it works, how’s to complain? That featured greenhouse is a dream of mine, well probably every gardener alive, as well.

Grace: Welcome back! The rainy weather brings a flurry of posts, even though the material for them should be waning. Love the new look for your site.

I think we women need to develop some carpentry skills. My vision is not so very fancy…more like something knocked together from recycled windows, etc. Oh, well, indeed. It is still possible that the growing number of plants that come inside for the winter will motivate R. We’ll see.

I’ve got similar aspirations. I hope some day to have a greenhouse that doubles as a little outdoor hangout complete with furniture where dinners and poker games can be held. And my reality is more that I wrap my plants in bubble wrap and burlap on cold nights. Oh well.

I see a jealous tomato plant on the right that’s wondering why it didn’t merit a fancy plastic cover! But whatever works, greenhouse-wise, I say. There’s always next summer for true building construction. Meanwhile, enjoy the tomatoes…ripened or green.
