    Thank you very much everybody. I am really touched by your kind wishes and beautiful pictures. It means a lot to me. I had a really good relaxing day. I took a day off. My husband is away on business trip, so I just spend some time home waiting for Maria to come from school, working in the garden and reading. I really needed this for my sanity. Recently it was (and still is) so much pressure at work that I sometimes don't even have energy to post here at forum.
    Really special thanks to Lori. I am so fortunate to have such a friend. Our tastes in roses are remarkably similar and I lern so much from you, Lori.
    Kathy, yes, we definitely should do better next year :)
    Karen, what is the name of your beautiful daughter? She is adorable.
    Cupshaped, FP fragrance is my favorite of all roses.
    Sue, your asters are beautiful. I love them.
    Rick, Deuil is one of my very favorite roses. I hope it will give you as much pleasure as it gives to me.
    Ron and Melva, thank you. I always look for yor posts and your experience and kindness is what makes this forum such a special place.
    Lance, you have the most wonderful collection of roses. Whenever I am asking about some rare rose you are usually the one who grows it. I think your tastes should be similar to my or you just have a LOT of roses :) You always help me to make descisions.
    Kate,thank you. You are such an expert yourself and always helping others.
    Stefan, you are so close to me and Lori. Next spring we should organize something, for example to go to Heritage Rosarium together if you have time, or just come to see our gardens.
    Carol (carolfm), what a beautiful picture. Thank you, you are always kind to me.
    Carla, Thank you. Cramoise Superior is one of my favorite roses.
    Carol (blusibe), what is this plant? Looks really like it should be full of honey.
    Joe, you became such an accomplished photographer. I admire your pictures all the time.
    Mendocino rose, your gargen views are always in my mind. They are some of the most beautiful garden pictures and nature scenes that I ever saw. They are always an inspiration to me.
    Patrick, thank you. Nice picture :)
    Joanne, Rose the Rescht is really wonderful rose. Thank you very much.
    Jon, I learned so much from you. I love gardens with many different plants. The more, the better. I try to do something along this line at my place. But your garden is the golden standard to me.
    Jackie, clematis is my other passion. I have way too many of them. They can be as addictive as roses.
