MY FRIENDS BIRTHDAY 
my friend he has a birthday today
my friend he is one of those once a friend always a friend
my friend he and i met in medical school
my friend he and i were randomly assigned to do
a topic together on gout
my friend he and i have been friends since

my friend he and i did our junior year rotation together
my friend he and i worked hard but had fun
my friend he and i barely survived a lake fishing trip once
my friend he and i and our friends almost did not
survive a floating trip down the buffalo river
my friend he  and i worked in the same medical group for
several years
my friend he is responsible for our moving to this state

my friend he is a friend for ever  
my friend he is wished a happy birthday today

GARDEN UPDATE
here is the picture of my fall garden that will keep under
hoop row cover all winter











here is the same area a few weeks later













my wife she made a soup with swiss chard  cabbage
leaves   3 different kales   mustard greens   asian greens
garlic  onions   potatoes
all from the garden
my wife she added our motherinlaws shes beans-she
gets them from a mexican food  market (are tootless
beans which my wife she likes)

planted strawberries this weekend that will be ready
late spring 2011  yum yum
used compost from my chicken compost pile
mixed it in well   planted strawberries   then covered
ground with pine straw
the pine straw provides a mulch for the plants and
provides a surface for the strawberries to grow on

our tomatoes survived the cold onslaught this weekend
with only a slight nipping of the leaves
hopefully can get 2 more weeks of nice freeze free days
then can harvest them as per past blog

BAD SPORTS WEEKEND
bad sports weekend here
longhorns and cowboys played the same-
bad
rangers lost now must win all three games
not easy to do
cliff lee tonight gets a second chance
