To Peas or not to Peas

I was supposed to plant peas yesterday, but I didn't. I have 2 kinds this year, little sugar peas, and pole peas. (One kind to eat in the shell, one kind to shell.) I didn't plant them, a storm came in last night and dumped some snow on the ground. It looks like Thursday night might be a good time to plant. I figure I will do a pole in the middle, with little snap pea bushes around it, but a tomato cage on top (I bought the triangle ones last year that are stronger. I really like those.), and go with it.

The pole pea plant supposedly grows to 6 feet. This is nearly to the top of the back fence. It should be interesting.
