Well last night after work I planted a little sweet corn. Used to figure if I planted on my mother's birthday (4/26) I would have corn for my sister's birthday (7/18). With warmer weather maybe a little sooner. Some guys around here planting under clear plastic get it before July 1st.

My wife just wants me around more to help in late August and September when I return to this job and all the harvesting and marketing become her responsibility. We'll see. Phil
