most probably already know that Nan passed around 5pm Tues, 2nd massive heart attack while prep for surgery. Much appreciation for the "bests" posted above. Got in full walks, no-band 5x50 for company. Her sons will be here sometime & start going thru a mountain of clutter over couple days After the Ed is fed, BB1938 in SerJac Rowlette "scoop" & continue with the papers, write couple checks while waiting for the boys to show Ed Duncan, Batavia, NY pipe/cigar since ??62 I'm so sorry Ed. |

2016 Old Joe Krantz in a Mark Twain cob. Just finished another seed tray of tomato seed starts and got them on a heating mat. 144 started so far, about 50 more to go and then stage a second batch of Early Girl & Bush Champion II's in about two weeks. 30 varieties in total, 25 of them being ancient heirlooms and bolstering a large bumper of Bush Champion that are very early to fruit.
@ Ed I'm so sorry to hear this news. My condolences and hope you're managing.

Many know you better than I do, but if I can help in any way, I 'm just a PM away. |

I'm glad she's no longer in pain, but hate that you lost her. You know how to get hold of me anytime you need me. You and the boys take care. |

Had some Sutliff Crumble Kake VA Perique in a Mark Twain cob a bit ago.
Now a bit of 2015 C&D Shandygaff in a Dr Grabow Viking apple bowl with swirled micro rustication.

Don't think I've ever seen a Shell Briar that looks quite like that one. Maybe it's the strong sunlight. Hard to tell. |
