How unusual! I've never seen that variety of poinsettia before, but I'd love to have one if I could find it. Thanks for sharing your lovely, rare...
Donna, that is amazing! Is that a special bubblewrap, or the kind we use for shipping packages?
We have collected Nativities from around the world, and now have 35 which we put out at Christmastime. We hope you enjoy looking at a few of them!...
Syd, we have Eurasian Collared Doves here, also. I love to watch them walk--they seem to be on roller skates! And although these aren't in our...
Glad you are feeling better, Ronni! Now, just don't overdo and relapse.
Philip, I can almost smell those roses! They are truly gorgeous, and so kind of you to send them at this time of year (when even Texas roses are...

Think of all the happy people you leave in your path, Dooley! You earned every one of those smiles and hugs, so enjoy them to the fullest.
A warm welcome from central Texas! Gwen, you'll love it here--lots of advice, lots of pictures (that is a blatant hint), and lots of just plain...
Droopy, what a beautiful garden, and definitely not a leafy mess. I bet lots of Stewies are drooling over your hostas. That water feature is...
Those are beautiful wreaths! Do I remember correctly that you make one for your neighbor each year? I'm sure it's greatly appreciated. Thank you...
