A sad summer without tasty tomatoes. [View all]

Gardening will be going on the back burner this spring and summer as mr. beac and I prepare to move from Zone 6b/7a to Zone 5b.

While the move is a positive one, the thought of a summer w/out homegrown tomatoes makes me want to weep (we will be moving in prime tomato-ripening season.)

The perennials I've planted here will leave this place a prettier one than I found it, so I am trying to take comfort in their care.

My next challenge is to figure out how to move all my beloved houseplants-- including the ficus that I've kept alive for over seventeen years!

I'll still be popping by to live vicariously thru your gardening adventures.
