Dear Vincent,
9 u" J! z% U) P+ Q) Z. gI am feeling pretty sad, because it looks like I won't be able to plant my tomato garden this year. I'm just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot. I know if you were here my troubles would be over. I know you would be happy to dig the plot for me, like in the old days.% I- z6 Z9 s8 A4 H: R8 p( W# U/ [1 |
