My mom is 81 going on 41. She has more energy than I do - lol! She's always wanted to be able to grow her own veggies, but living in the desert (Las Vegas) makes it difficult to do. It's too hot in the summer, too cold in the winter, etc. So, she created a hydroponic garden in her spare bedroom, complete with tent, lights, watering system, and is growing 100% organic veggies in the comfort of her own home! I'm amazed that she was able to grow these from seeds to beautiful plants in the middle of winter, in just 2 months. She's so happy! She can hardly wait to experiment with growing other veggies - and herbs, too.  (No, not marijuana - ROFL!)

Yeah, my mom is very adventuresome and full of joy. Always laughing and finding humor in things - especially in herself. LOL! She's such a great role model for what your "80's"should be. :) I had fun helping her look up some recipes for the gorgeous banana peppers that she's grown. I wish I was able to take some pic of them. (I left my iPhone at home - gasp - and didn't have a camera with me.) Maybe next weekend...  

Can you mom come stay with me a while and set up a hydroponic garden? :)
Actually my sister set this up for her, but I know what you mean. I wish I could get her to set one up in MY house, too - haha!
I'm impressed!!
