Hello again Oakleyok, I hope you're feeling better now. I just watched the season finale of PLL, now I just want to get the books and find out the rest of the story, I can't wait for Season 2, no way , it's too long a wait. I'm going to search in order to find out which book coincides with the storyline as it stands on tv. Are the books all written already and the story concluded ?

Lately I have finished "The Girl Who Played W/ Fire", "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest", "Night" by Elie Wiesel, and "Kidnapped" by Jan Burke. I'm now reading a book a friend of Waynes' wrote "The William Vagersteen Paintings". It's loosely autobiographical, starting w/ his GF who was a colorful, interesting man. I think everyone should read "Night". It was a hard thing to read. I was disappointed in "Kidnapped". Our book group is reading "The Thirteenth Tale" for March. I read it about a year ago, but I'm gonna re-read it, b/c when I read them so far in advance, I always tend to forget a lot of it by the time the group meets, so this time I'm re-reading.

You might want to peruse the LBJ Wildflower Data base list of Agalinas . I find them very helpful. I have 2 Agalinas growing wild on my land The Praire Agalina (Agalina heterophylla ) which only grows on wet summers here; and the Plateau Agalina ( Agalina edwardsiana ) which is growing happily after a very dry& hot summer on the side of a limestone ravine.. The front of my land is the opposite where the prairie agalina grows . It grows in adobe clayon a flat field. I would focus on gathering the seed for next year. The lady bird site recommends the A. edwardsiana for wildflower gardens in my area. I think the deer like to eat them The only one I saw was growing in a cage around a small endangered Madrone tree thatI was protecting. They turn a beautiful red in the fall as they die.
