Yup, I'm back. Came home to only 488 e-mails for three weeks worth. Glad the list was quiet :-) Lake Louise of course, was GREAT. So was Banff, Jasper, Canmore, the Icefields & every other place we visited.... with the possible exception of Saskatoon. It was marked as a scenic drive on my map, but unless you consider driving back and forth across something that looks alot like Kansas (only MUCH longer), it gets pretty boring, pretty quick. HOT also. Hit 102 F in Edmonton & you should have heard those poor folks howling about the heat :-) They thought anything above 85 F was warm. And, to be on topic, I walked the fields yesterday. The fields look great. A little overgrown but me & mr. weedeater will soon remedy that over the next week or so. Stuff is looking early also. I'll have habs by the first week of August, already have Cayennes and Jalapenos. There isn't a lot of any one particular variety but there are about 4,000 plants to choose from. Should be plenty for all that care to come. -Jim C Mild to Wild
