HOME AT LAST
(Thursday) Cheryl picked me up at the airport in San Jose and we finally got home at about 12:30 this morning.

This morning I could see that the kids had done a good job taking care of the yard while I was gone. We have some huge tomatoes. Tomatillos are about to take over a quarter of the universe. One of the key lime seeds I planted has sprouted -- AND an even more wonderful surprise -- one of the mango seeds I planted has sprouted and is now about 4 inches tall. This is the first mango I've been able to germinate.
