Italian Tomato Garden-

An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig histomato garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son,Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter tohis son and described his predicament.

Dear Vincent,
I am feeling pretty badly 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 agarden plot. I know if you were here my troubles would be over. I know youwould be happy to dig the plot for me.
Love, Dad

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Dear Dad,
Don't dig up that garden. That's where I buried the bodies.
Love, Vinnie

At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son...

Dear Dad,
Go ahead and plant the tomatoes now. That's the best I could do under thecircumstances.
Love you, Vinnie

First of all, this is the best part about Spring ;-) If you're wondering what all the pens and paper and such are about, I found these hidden in the computer desk from my Mom...haha. Thanks Mom, but only two!!?? LOL!

I wanted to post, but really had nothing new or exiting to talk about, so you get to see some pics from a few weekends ago when we had an ice storm. These came out really cool, I think. The last one is just a picture of our driveway before the freezing part of the freezing rain came. Seriously so much water, but no where to go with it! Now it's just all frozen again ;-)

Look who won 2nd place in the Custest Baby Contest?

You should recognize that photo!

So I spent the last part of the weekend with the flu.
Had to miss classes on Monday because of snow and flu.
Tried driving back to my college town Tuesday morning.
Car killed on the way back.
Engine is shot.
Missed class again.

And now I need to come up with the money for a new car.
Yay.

So much for saving up for the new lens I have been wanting.

What kind of cars will last a long time and are affordable?
I can only afford around $6000-$7000...
