326.jpgI got my tobacco plants, and I didn’t have to commit a crime or have to threaten anyone with violence or anything (as in: I hope you can tell me where to get tobacco seeds or slips. [nervous laughter] I’d hate for this to turn into a hostage situation…).  As a matter of fact, the farmer I got them from was polite and knowledgeable, and was eager to help me out.  Sweet!

I planted the seven slips he gave me of yesterday before some storms came through.  I hope at least a couple of them make it - we will see.  I will take pictures as time goes by and, if all goes well, I will start building a small curing shed in the next month or so.
