When is it time to replant Papaya seedlings? Two to three inches high. I believe we are ready to place into individual pots and create a strong root ball.

Florida Bird Life
The red bird could be a Hepatic Tanager, which made a home for her hatchlings in our eureka palm which are located in our back yard bush. The hatchlings were there for approximately one week after coming out of their shells.

Panama canal adventure with Island Princess
A must-see destination – Panama Canal, one of the greatest engineering feats of 20th centry. Seeing the canal was the main reason we took the
cruise. Jimmy Carter decided to give the canal and operation to Panama during his presidency. Then, US maintains the position of defending it
if and when needed. More http://www.jnlyman.com/blog/PanamaCanal.htm

Still winter
The winter of 2011 / 2012 was fairly mild compared to two previous winters where the temperatures dropped below freezing damaged much of our fruit trees. As can be seen in the photo, the papaya trees have came back bearing fruit along with the banana trees.
Back Yard Park
Our back yard is now turning into the Home Park, with picnic bench in place.

What is amaranth anyway ? — new on our home page
Now the weather is cooling off. We are able to restart our vegetable garden. Amaranth (Chinese name: XianCai) is apparently on my list since Jerry and I both like it as much as we like sweet potato leaves. So, here is the information on growing amaranth:

As we know, our dearest Uncle passed away one year ago, Oct.
2, 2011. Jerry and I were talking about a Family web page where we could
remember those close to us all. That way we can always see family
photos, stories, what our ancestors taught us, their legacys, and how
they would want to see us carry on. So far, I only have a few
photos, but kindly know that this is work in progress as we all are.
You all are invited to our family page at http://www.jnlyman.com/blog/ChanLin.htm
and blog at http://www.jnlyman.com/blog/
Thanks to all for the photos and suggestions. Please
feel free to write any comments and topics w/ blog. Also, you can always
email me photos and notes. At this point, the web page is very
simple html. We will add flash, mp3 and other advancements later. Hope to
hear from you soon.
