Looks like we are going to have cold weather the next few days, I had frost on my car, I tucked in my tomatoes in the raised bed, so hope they make it. They are covered with a big comforter. Next year I am going to have tunnels so I know I can keep them going longer. The concrete blocks are perfect to stick plastic water pipe in and arch to the otherside, then cover with plastic and close up the ends. Hopefully we able to start things earlier and keep them going longer.

Picked my roses so I could enjoy them, I imagine they are frosted over, this morning. Edit to say: That is the view of my world most days, guess you can tell I work for a crane company...rofl.

Debra the best potting bench I have had so far is a open mesh round patio table (I think you can see it in the pergola photos), it is great, good height, stuff falls right thru to the ground, old potting mix, water, trimmings. I can even put an umbrella in it if it gets too hot or sunny for me. I found it on clearance 4/5 years ago. I have seen them at garage sales also. Then when I am not potting which is usually never, or I am having someone over I can clean it off and use it for other things.
