on a gardening forum. Gardeners always have happy reasons to get up and stroll outside with the coffee to see what's happening. And are at least somewhat inured to disaster and drama, always some excitement.

We have four acres, a half wooded hill and pasture. Health problems and eventually rotating between 3 states ended my big garden, with the help of an increasing herd of deer, but we have them to enjoy now. I miss all the fun planning, seed starting and so on, though. Next home, downsized that deer, groundhogs, etc can't get at, I may just put in a lath house and a few planters. Get back to growing some favorite roses with herbs underneath...

Happy gardening.
