I planted the first peas today...it feels a little late but then again it snowed last week and we were sick and...well now they're in so there you go. It was gently raining so although a little bit wet and cold for me, great for the peas. I would post a picture but I forgot my camera so you'll have to check the archives for last April and I'm sure there's something  there. I did eight rows, mostly snap but one of snow and two of shell. Yay peas!

Harry Kalas passed away this week. For those of you who didn't grow up in Philly or didn't live in a baseball family maybe you don't know him. But for those of us who did, he was the voice and spirit of the Phillies. He called every game, he was in the booth getting ready for Monday's game when he collapsed and was taken to the hopsital. He was beloved among the fans, other announcers, the city in general. The Phillies had something at the stadium for the fans today, his casket was laid in state there and people spoke - his sons, players, friends. It was sweet. it's nice when someone has touched people's lives in a positive way and you get to see it. So much time is spent on the horrors of the world, maybe we should be spending more time appreciating the simple things, the sound of Harry's voice.
