Is Lemon Boy the next to go?
Q

No, anney, I hadn't seen that but it's not news as I got the same information directly from Vilmorin. I've gotten as many of the OP strains as I can and have tried a couple but they just don't measure up. Going back to the Lemon Boy, I think it certainly could happen there too but no one will tell us until afterwards. My suspicion is that may be what's going on. Burpee sent me seeds that did not germinate - probably too old. Totally Tomatoes has it listed on their site with a nice picture but has a note that it is "unavailable". A few others still have some. This is why I asked my second question in an effort to learn more about de-hybridizing. There is lots of discussion around but I can find little real information unless it is along the lines of saving several generations of seed. In the case of Dona, that hasn't worked. Somewhere I saw something about a method that involved some back-crossing but I can't find it now. I don't expect to recapture all the genetic background but a little effort could yield something acceptable.

Snow day, so I am home and watched him, too. He really is so much fun to watch. Once he gets the quad, he will be amazing. He is my favorite without the quad anyway. Just love his style, musical choices, and atttude. Hoping against hope that he can pull up and be on the podium. Don't want to wish anyone else ill, but still... :) oops, spotted typo just as I hit send. Edited to correct. This post was edited by cyn427 on Thu, Feb 13, 14 at 13:45

Wow! Sure a lot of people showed up for roll call. Good thing I decided to come back to visit after being absent for a few weeks. Please add me to your (ever-growing) list. Using the tv weathermen's lingo, I'm from SoCal. Thanks Minnie for undertaking this huge task. Kat

Going to the funeral of a 3 1/2 year old boy
Q
Comments (5)
Bronzino Thank you.....I knew the father the best. Since he was the Principal for 5 years at our school I spoke with him a lot. I did some cleaning to help with tuition and when I worked on Saturdays he would come in with two of his kids and the kids would watch me run the floor scrubbing machine. Then when I remarried and became the parent of my SD she ended up in the same class as his daughter. I kind of take on the burdens of those that are suffering at times like this. I cry for them a lot. I know that a lot of people feel the same way. My heart breaks for them. I am not so sentimental about things but I am about memories. These people shared their lives with us. During some Chapels at school the Principal would bring his little son up on stage with him and the boy would crawl around while his daddy spoke to the school. Every one knew them. It makes you see how fleeting this life is and how short our time is with our kids. I have a DD20 that is talking about moving out and although we have had our issues she wouldn't be leaving under bad circumstances, if she goes now. We could use the extra room but gosh I wish she was 5 years old again for a day here and there. There are days when I wish they would all leave and times when I cry for days that are long gone. Having this funeral in a few days is making me very emotional....how does a parent part with a child like that. lamom....should you read this.....my heart aches for you. You and your dear son are in my prayers. I must blow my nose now....sigh.
