Haven't posted much in the way of my progress so far this year so I thought I would post a few pictures. This is my first year planting my own seed. Needless to say I went a little nuts with over 40 different types of tomatos. I got my plants out early for Maryland and was lucky with no frost in April. I already have some tomatoes growing on a bunch of plants, Here are a few pictures. Take care!

Most excellent attml. That Paul Robeson is putting out some bodaciously "deep" color. It must be nice to be able to watch your garden grow and catch dinner at the same time... I'm jealous. ;D

Very nice, but I would put Michigan tomatoes and corn up to about any on the planet...you have me on the seafood, I am not a Big Salmon fan but I am a fishing fool. I would be the guy stealing Lobstas..Hod core.

Thanks guys! Darth, I wish we had lobsters in the Chesapeake! We do have poor man's lobster (Blue Crabs) which are pretty awesome with a cold beer! I just need to catch a few more like this 43 inchers like this one I caught last fall! I have off next Tuesday and Wednesday to watch the Blue Angels fly their yearly show at the Naval Academy and I hope to fish both days! Now if I could just get that Paul Robeson to ripen! :-)

Thanks guys! Darth there are only 2 problems with you guys coming out for tomatoes and fishing for a week. First, all 3 of us would be sleeping in the dog house because the boss would have none of that. She thinks thinks I spend too much time in the garden and on the water as it is! ;D The second problem is that once you guys have some of that local eastern shore sweet corn you may never want to go back home to that horse corn you guys have out west ;D Mark

Lobster stealers deserve nothing better than horse corn. Stealing is nothing to be proud of or boast about. New England fisherman take this seriously.
