Good find! I have an old wooden extension ladder hanging in the garage. I had forgotten about it. It is heavy and I used it years ago to wash the second floor windows. Maybe I will get it out and do something with it. Thanks for the reminder. Marylee

IE won't let me see your blog either, tasymo. I'm not pc smart enough to know why. The page starts to load then an IE message box comes up and says it can't do it, operation aborted. If I click on the box it closes the whole page, if I don't it stops loading and I can't scroll the page or click on anything on it. Just wanted to let you know. Donna

That's GREAT news Andrew...you're talking to someone that HATES shipping with a passion. Don't get me wrong I've ordered many things and have had to pay shipping(many times that's the only way to get things you want) but I'm with you...if its doable w/out shipping that's just more $$ to spend on a few more plants,lol...You're very lucky to find this nursery. They could have just as easily tacked on an extra $10 or so just to cover their shipping charges.

Thank you, Teacats Anniewy, Hanna Antiques is on 7th Ave S, just off the Red Mountain Express way exit onto 8th Ave S. Does your MIL live in Hoover near Hwy 31 or Hwy 280? If Hwy 31, be sure to check out Hoover Antiques at the corner of Patton Chapel Road. It's upstairs in the shopping center (Bedzzz Xpress, Quiznos are there) so you leave 31 to Patton Chapel, the turn right on Old Columbiana Rd to enter the front door (it's on the second floor only of the building, so entrance is around back)....and thanks!
