Marine Corps training at Purr-is Island.
Egg-zactly!
Welcome! We are in the south also--central Texas on a small farm. As Frank said, your plants look wonderful! Please keep us updated on your...
I wish it to be a good day for all--Texas had severe weather yesterday, and I'm worried about Toni, Mart, and other Texas members, as well as...
Oh, Happy Birthday! May you have many more, and may all of them be filled with wonderful "junque".
