Your being to hard on yourself. Bet it is better than you think.. post again so we can see....pretty pretty please :-)

I got 6 viable seeds from the two pods of the Pink POB. Three each to a one gallon can. But I also have at least two pinks in the ground in front of my house. We'll know for sure next spring when they flower. Lots of seeds for everyone then. Susannah, the garden did just fine without me. Minimal cleanup; however, there will be some extra litter in ten days due to the cold snap while we were gone. (Ricky's ten day to leaf drop rule.) Anna, that Latania is one of the prettiest I've ever seen. The salt spray keeps the pests from getting at it. And that bamboo hedge is a great idea for a formal or semi-formal design. It gets fairly good sun most of the day and was thriving. Of course, Jamaica receives over 100" of rain a year; almost double our 60".

Gorgeous sunsets! Those red ones are kinda spooky! LOL lildaohmowga- I don't see what you see but I love to look at clouds and find things in them.My mother use to do that and I always did it with my kids.We would sit in the lounge chairs outside in the summer and look for things in the clouds,or while we were driving on trips.Kept them occupied and it was fun to see what their imaginations came up with.I still do it now when DH and I are traveling.Sometimes he can see what I see,other times he just thinks I'm nuts!LOL

Just want to say I look forward to and enjoy the pictures every day.
