I have about 16 tomatoes, maybe 10 have blossoms.  four bell pepper plants, 
all have buds and a few smell knotty looking peppers.  We finally had four 
consecutive days of below 104 degree temperature, that is supposed to be the 
baseline for blossoms to set.  Hopefully in a few weeks I will start 
harvesting .  The okra and squash are still barren.  

The past few mornings have been nice and cool.  It is just breaking dawn and 
only 84 degrees.  Must go find my sweater  ........bobford
