I'm happy-happy-happy and can't believe my luck. I'm jumping up and down here and it's very hard to type but I really had to tell someone....
I'm with the others, I love photos and especially of furry friends. :D Your work sounds challenging and interesting, and so does your hobby. :stew2:
Lovely finds, you're so good at picking stuff, toni. :D I really liked the whatchamacallit and the soap dish, they're so different.
Kuntrygal, I've heard there are hostas for warmer areas, so you might want to check it out. On the other hand, you can grow lots of lovelies we...
Oh, Palustris, I'm so sorry for you. :(

Thank you for sharing your memory with us. :D How sweet of your parents to bring you a piece of your special peony. Your peonies are all...
It might also be an Aconitum, Monkshood. The buds look about right for it.
I have to say I felt a bit funny, since we've never actually meant to have that many. :lol:
Your flowers are sheer delight, Netty. Now I need to know the name of that red-and-white thingie, is it a Penstemon? And if so, which is it? Does...
I was just outside counting hostas. With our latest little beauty, Blue Mouse Ears, we're up to 60 different ones. I think. I might have forgotten...

Oooh, I really like your painting style! :D The Donkey One is very special, but so are the last two you are showing as well.
