The weather has been simply glorious for the past couple of weeks----days in the 67 deg F to 78 deg F, and nights only 45 deg F to 50 deg F. I am so tempted to start planting tomatoes and beans and cucumbers..........My son did as he said oh well if we get a cold snap I'll cover them. If I loose them what's a few seeds and plants as I could be way ahead this year. Last year our May was like mid summer with temps above 90 many days. So just maybe I'll plant out a few and wait and see. Mary-Anne USDA Zone 9b Sunset Zone 14/15 San Francisco Bay Area "Who plants the seed beneath the sod, and waits to see, believes in God."
