3 years, damn, I wish I was so lucky. I have no end in sight. But we sound exactly alike these days. Thats probably why I got so into peppers again in the last few years, to get away from the technological thinking.
Well, the downside of being able to retire is your age

...AKA old. My older brother, who BTW retired at 55 with a 6 figure retirement, keeps telling me don't rush your life away. Not trying to do that, I'm just tired of thinking for other people, if that makes sense. I'm 58 and been working 40 or more hours a week for 44 years. I'm more than ready
And yes, physical work is a fantastic release after a day of brain work! I spent 25 years as an auto technician before I moved to IT. The brain work IS more exhausting. So what do you do in IT?
I manage the networks, all the Cisco gear. I design and deploy the gear, about 80 pieces. I run 35+ servers for the school district. Mainly Winders 2012, but 5 or 6 are Linux. Most are VM's on a Window hypervisor system. I designed and implemented our Cisco phone system from scratch. It's on a VMware system, new to me but not hard. I also handle the SAN's, I have 6 or 7, and our backups go to 2 different ones at 2 different locations. I wear a few more hats, like doing ERATE, all the purchasing, I could go on...lol

Scott, broccoli is one of the hardest vegetables to freeze out. Up in our part of Tezas I've a plant survive several freezes and continue to produce "headlets".
Of course, that sterile brown stuff you call "garden dirt" doesn't give a poor plant much incentive, now does it.....;-)
I'm hoping you're correct Eric! Right now they're looking mighty limp.

Nice list Scott, best of luck this season, looks like your off to a great start with the seedlings. Too bad about the freeze really liked those pineapples in your glog. Have you grow the Manzano before? Still haven't had a chance to try that one, I started one in the hydroponics set-up and its been a straggler from the start, just don't seem as happy as the others.
Take Care
Hi Anthony!
Although we lost 7 Pineapples in the garden, we have 7 that are in pots, they came inside. I'm done planting them in the dirt. every time I do, it freezes
First time growing a Red Manzano, in the past an Orange one. They are rather hard to get going, but in your climate they should be mas happy!
