    Hi,

    Just realized I posted this on the hobbies forum in error. :oops:

    Just dropping in from Sunny South Florida where we are blessed to be able to garden year round. Unfortunately I haven't taken advantage as I should this year. We had a bad drought last year and between that and the water restrictions I just gave up. I still have a few areas planted and some potted plants but haven't had the energy to plant my spring cutting garden yet. If I don't "hurry up and wiggle my hips" it will be too late. ;) I do enjoy reading about other's gardens, seeing pics and getting ideas from others tho and from what I've seen so far I am going to enjoy this forum.

    I am an avid animal lover and have three BIG dogs and a love bird (all rescues) right now. Just lost my "Old Man Dog" a few months ago. Love my boys and consider them my family.

    Hi White Wolf, welcome to GardenStew from north Texas.
    I lived in WPB for about 5 years....about 35 yrs ago. I had plants everywhere and could just stick a twig in the ground and it would root and grow. But I certainly don't miss the Palmetto Bugs.

    Sorry about your 'old man dog' We do have a Pet Memorial Thread forum if you ever feel the need to post a photo and talk about your friend.

    Also, I took care of the posts in the other topic.

    We have a cat. I'm not sure if we rescued her 12 years ago, or she rescued us.
