Greg and Joan, I'm looking forward to more pics from you two! Golden Pagoda is intriguing. You don't see that one much, and I bet it gets very prominent points in the Houston heat. Joan, maybe you hire a little crew of teenagers every Spring Break to help you out with those 200 trees! Can't wait to see the blooms that are developing here, and you bet I'll post when I get a chance. Robert, that Lemon Drop is Thornton's and one of only a few big ones I have. It's certainly the "branchiest". That's what you can look forward to in a few more years! Bill, our little guy gets us invited back to a lot of places! We would all love to go back to CA soon. Will definitely let you know if we get a chance. K, glad the seeds are coming up for you; they're the perfect flowers for a Texas drought! Yes, that is TLD on the tree because my memory is just THAT bad, lol. Sometimes I abbreviate and then ask myself, "Now what the heck does that stand for again?" Dave, thanks for the compliments! I'm in Austin. We're 8b but I've seen at least one big plumeria tree kept in the ground all winter in my neighborhood. It can be done in a sheltered spot with frost cloth since our freezes are all short-lived. Mike, I found another possible oh-please-let-it-be inflo today, so I feel like I won the lottery! Hope you also have a great bloom year!

We live in Central Indiana and have a home in Southern Indiana. We have had so much rain. Over the Easter weekend we had so much flooding in the south. Our home is located outside of French Lick, Indiana. The business part of town was so badly flooded. Our home out of town sits up on a hill. The neighbor man said we had 2 cars parked up in our drive and the water was up to the windows. The water was up to within 6 inches of the bottom of the stop sign at the corner. We have never seen water this high before. My hubby went down later on in the week and it still looked like a lake across the road. We have had more then enough rain...

Brighton's marketing, merchandising and entire image is very pleasing. They spare no expense on it. I am completely sucked in by it and have splurged on more than one of their handbags. I just love the design details and quality materials - everything from the leather, the lining, the packaging, etc. They have a store in the mall by me that's right next to the Apple store. I've had to go into the Apple store a few times re: our iPhones and it's dangerous for me to pass by that Brighton store. I see you can now order online - very dangerous.

Thank you, Larsi! No need to send me any more Tide, but bless you for offering :) I will be on a mission to find more! It will be an adventure and exciting, LOL the things that excite me!! Yep, I am excited, indeed. I've been wandering around the house aimlessly hunting for things to wash that are worthy of this Tide. My house smells lovely, sheets are washed and bed is made--sheets smell divine! Will be sweet dreams tonight :)
